You can quarantine the attachments to a mailbox and then deliver if it is not infected. BTW....word documents can carry vbs type infections, just check today's security alert at
http:[EMAIL PROTECTED] We currently block about 11 file types. including exe, vbs, dll, com, bat, bin , msg, drv, pif, eml, scr, swf, sys, cmd. This is about all we can do and still operate our business.

You need to find a balance. You cant go blocking file types all wily nilly if your company has a legitamate use for them. As an example, back when I started blocking VBS files, I spoke with the VP of development to make sure this wasn't going to cause a bunch of issues. -----Original Message----- From: Eldridge, Dave [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 04, 2002 7:13 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Attachment blocking Now what! Ok for those of you that block all attachments including .exe .com .jpg .gif . How do you deliver legitimate attachments to your folks. I want to implement this but I would like to hear the process of others. I don't want to have to spend all day manually delivering somebodies pictures of their kids to them. thanks in advance. dave List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
