Why is this wrong? exe files are low life and nasty files and should be banned along with .com files and a whole host of other vial MS born problems, if microsoft gave a way for normal everyday people the option to drop these vial files client side, or just put a solid wall between the internet and the os there would'nt have a need to ban these, and why would anybody want to notify a exe file sender there file didn't destroy somone's computer I would never pay a dime for a ms os and I am spending the time to familerize my kids with linux, that is untill ms buys linux one day which will be down the road shortly
they are already connected to a lawsuit against linux by SCO which shares a past and future with ms --- - = k o l i s k o = - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You are right, when the message contains real virus. > > But when user send as a attachment fe .exe file, > which is blocked in > qmail-scanner, but the user dont know that, the > message will be droped > by server and sender nor recipient will not get any > message.
