Outlook 2000 SP2 (or SP1 with Email Attachment
Security Update), Outlook 2002 both have this
capability. I have never implemented it, nor read too
much about it, so I can't give too many specifics. But
the info is available on Microsoft's site.

With these clients and Exchange 5.5 or 2000, you can
control which attachment types get automatically
blocked.

>From what I recall, you can define the attachment
types to block in Exchange, but I do not know how to
configure it. I would imagine that further reading
either at http://www.microsoft.com/office or
http://www.microsoft.com/exchange would yield all the
juicy, pertinent details.

Perhaps someone else on the list has had experience
with this feature?
