That's a very rough response... I mean - I agree with you - but people will be people. I personally think that compression option should be classified the same way as the "encrypted zip file" option: disabled by default, and should have more of a description as to why and how you should set it. I disabled it as we had too many people who seem to be sending large BMP files around: instead of the naive, non-IT end-user trying to find some TOOL to convert their BMP to a JPG, they did the next smart thing and put it into a ZIP file - thus getting the great compression they were after before e-mailing it off. (I haven't had time to figure out what ratio would be high enough to allow all such files in, so have disabled instead of setting it higher - which I would actually prefer) To blame users for such an action is a bit extreme... Not everyone is a Linux user or a Windows programmer/designer - like we are ;-) -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
