[olug] old news - but worth noting

[Trent Melcher]

Our users, yes they do know how to zip/unzip files, and most do, its our
customers that I worry about.  Fortunately most of our non-technical
cutomers only use the telephone side of our service and don't get into
forwarding their faxes and voice files to email, save me a lot of
headaches really.  But there are a few that don't know how to use zip.

My working theory is: If two users aren't sophisticated enough to know
how to zip/unzip a file, (zips are allowed) , they shouldn't be playing
with
(.exe,.com,.bat) attachments.  It would be like giving a 3 year old
gasoline and a lighter<g>
