I'd use Anomy for this - works great.  Here is a snippet from it's 
configuration file:

# Delete executable, script and unscannable attachments:
file_list_1 = (?i)(winmail\.dat
file_list_1 += |\.([23]86|vb[se]|jse|cpl|crt|chm|cpl|in[fsi]
file_list_1 += |isp|dll|drv|cmd|sc[rt]|sys|bat|pif|lnk|hlp
file_list_1 += |ms[cip]|reg|asd|sh[bs]|app|ocx|ht[ta]|mht
file_list_1 += |url|exe|ws[cfh]|ops|com|prx|zip))\s*
file_list_1_policy = drop
file_list_1_scanner = 0

Integrates with Postfix very neatly.
