Which is fine for spam. For mail from real accounts that have owners stupid enough to send a binary attachment, there are the many fine autoresponders which can 1) delete the message for you so you don't have to see it, 2) automatically send a message (polite or impolite) to the idiot who sent the attachment. E-Mail is not an acceptable surrogate for a networked filesystem. As mentioned Kerberos, OpenAFS and Apache are part of the base distro. For lamer, lower tech options there is always WebDAV provided by mod_dav. Regards -Lars
