JA>> No offence, but don't you think the attitude is a little rude?

I thought it a little rude myself (sorry Gary!) but since no offence
was taken the incident can now be passed as resolved at that level.

I'd like to think that too.

KA> BTW why *are* attachments allowed ?

... because our servers are not able to filter message attachments,
they can only block messages of excessive size. The limit has been
40kb and I have just dropped it to 25kb (which should be enough for
most of us). That wouldn't have stopped the eicar test (at on 3kb
it's pretty lean) but it would stop a real virus.

The server is, however, capable of removing specific MIME types of
attachments. I could put in a list of MIME types to screen and
strip. Does anyone have any suggestions of a good filter set for
that?
