In Digest V2005 #94, the person identified as Dan K <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> hunted and pecked out the following:
>My CE DLs folder keeps refilling with useless GIFs and pseudo-GIFs (** >The encoded enclosure "encoded Hmc.GIF" could not be decoded because the >end of the archive was found prematurely..) and spam .html files. I >rarely receive _real_ files via email attachment. > >I haven't found a way to stop CE from automatically DLing this junk. Am I >missing something or doesn't the control exist? I care not a jot for the >bandwidth and disk space consumed, but it's a relentless PITA to have to >"take out the trash" once or twice a day just so all my real messages can >finally show up. Don't know that there's a way to make [EMAIL PROTECTED] delete downloaded attachments automagically, but you might try Emailer Cleanup, a neat little freeware application written by Howard Bornstein (who once frequented this list, but I don't recall seeing his name recently). You can program it for the extensions to delete, and have it run every minute, 10 minutes, hour, or day (assuming it's kept running in the background), otherwise you can call it up and run it when you think about it. It =was= available for download via the Web, but I don't know if it still is or not. Google on "Emailer+Cleanup" and see if it turns up. If not let me know and I'll email it to you (unless Chris wants to keep it on his Web site). -- Selah!
