But that message won't forward a copy of itself to everyone in your addressbook and in your corporate LDAP server. Why are you even bothering to try to argue about this?! It's not like this is unexplored territory and no one knows what will happen if we try. You are proposing to give Evolution *exactly* the functionality that has made Outlook as grotesquely insecure as it is. The warning message in your wrapper program is even similar to the demonstrated- to-be-absolutely-useless warning that Outlook gives in this case. > > If you feel comfortable shipping the exe-handler without a warning > > dialog, well, then, go ahead, I guess (but please don't tie it into > > gnome-vfs!).

Jesus guys, why dont you go > read the source code I posted before making those claims? You have exactly missed my point. I'm claiming that it is (in the general case) just as "secure" with the warning as it is without, so if you don't feel comfortable shipping it without the warning, you shouldn't feel comfortable shipping it with either. -- Dan _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
