That's a good idea.  I also run Outlook 2000 (and pine, sometimes, when I
don't feel like tipping over to the Windoze box) and, you're right, that's a
risk.

I suppose that ZIPping the mail attachment might preclude that risk,
however.

An option would be a good idea, though.

        Perhaps make it an option, then?  Even for the local "virusalert"
role, there is added danger in forwarding it.  Some viruses these days don't
need to be opened if you're using a mail tool like outlook (which, yes, many
of us run for various reasons).
