Well, my company's policy is to block all "non-business" related attachments (.pps, .mpg, .mp3, .wmf, ...). But some of our users are very clever and they quickly realised that by changing the file's extension they can send those files anyway. It means a little bit of extra work, but they still do it. So I was thinking that by implementing this functionality QS would be able to recognize the filetype and then to decide whether to block it or not. robert __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
