Thx for the hint. I'll have to try out these keys...

Right-clicking not conveneient? That's what I do. ;-)

I hardly ever have the focus on the attachment, therefore hitting
"enter" will usually result in the focussed message being opened in a
new View Folder but won't open an attachment. I would have to actually
clcik onto the attachment icon (or move there with the TAB key) to get
it in focus.

Therefore, I don't see a security risk.

In addition, you can add *.* to ProtectWarnOpen, so that you get
warned if the file extension is not explictely allowed or disabled.

You need to edit the following key in your registry
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!\

Change the values of the following to get what you need.

ProtectAllowOpen
ProtectDisableOpen
ProtectWarnOpen

Because I consider this as a security bug. You easily hit enter... and
you open a program you didn't really want to run...

So short,
