Nathan,

I've just been scanning through the documentation about how to restrict
attachments and I have not been able to find anything.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Jon Gear

You can also tune the Attachments= setting to allow certain types of
attachments (as documented) while rejecting others.  If you have to
allow images, for instance, that doesn't mean you have to allow
executables.
