RE: [PLUG] The spirit also took Scrooge


I think the list already does something like that.  I remember having to
deactivate my verisign certificate when posting.

attachments and eliminate

Stripping ALL attachments would also strip PGP signings from emails,
since
signings come as attachments.

A email virus scanner might not be a bad idea; I believe there's a free
Linux-based email scanner available somewhere. Perhaps limiting
attachments
to some ridiculusly small amount - 2K - would allow PGP signing
attachments,
but not infected binaries.
