Hi there all, Does anyone know of an e-mail vlient that you can specify not to let any attachments come in anymore. I know that you can tell clients like Eudora that you don't want messages from over a certain amount of KB but that's not what I want. cheers, Marjo

I have found in practice that Outlook 2000 bans messages containing .exe and others and has a few other nice addins filtering out potential virii, this is after the latest patches for the product ZoneAlarm pro also filters out attachmants baseed on extension. Hope this helps, -Jonathan Simpson

OE6 has those same features also.

Outlook allows certain file extensions to come through as attachments. It all depends. The best thing to do is to disable the attachment feature on the e-mail server, rather than on the clients.

I think you would be best sticking to my answer, or another simplar to it Jennifer although trying to help has complicated matters a little.Jennifer,Marjo is a standard user conecting to an ISP he maynot have access or even have a email server. So, if Im being simplistic , do the above posting from myself. -Jonathan

Marjo didn't say what type of machine/client/connection is being used. I didn't want to assume anything, so I gave a correct answer based on what information was given. :) If you're running an ISP connection, you can request that the ISP disable attachments on your account. Usually, they will do this.
