> Why not have the sender PGP encrypt & sign it it?

That's  asking  a  lot  more of a user (or his/her IT staff) than just
renaming a file.

How  about  something simpler yet: a sender confirmation (similar to a
list  confirmation,  requiring  either  a  blank reply or a deliberate
"OK")  required  to  deliver  e-mails with attachments. Yes, any virus
originated  from  a real, attended and purely malicious e-mail account
would  be  able to be maliciously confirmed, but how common would that
be?  Yes, this could create joe-job floods, but it would only apply to
attachments  that  are  (a) gray-banned, not totally banned or totally
allowed,  and  (b)  not  containing  known  viruses, so there would be
controls on the flooding.

For  Declude  Virus  users,  such a solution would be pretty simple to
implement, so I wonder what the commnunity's interest would be.
