These are server settings and no, users can not opt out of postscreen, for example. They also cannot choose to receive .exe files, for example. After the message is accepted, then the message is processed much more rigorously and delivered to the user. The USER can discard mail if they want, but the SERVER never discards messages after they’ve been accepted. -- "He sees the good in every one.
