-----Original Message-----
I just got a legitimate text vCard attachment in my quarantine with a .vcs 
extension. It's in the list of bad file extensions in the default filter.
Why is that? Is this extension used for some bad binary formats? Or can a vCard 
carry dangerous macros? I'm trying to decide whether to remove vcs from the 
list, since calendar files for appointments do seem like a legitimate thing to 
receive.

The sender was xtime, which seems to be an automotive dealer-customer 
management system, and it assigned application/octet-stream as the mime type of 
the attachment instead of a proper calendar type.
