Declude can be configured to do several kinds of blocking for these. Block all non-passworded zips. Block zips inside of zips.
Until the virus writers use this trick it should be safe to leave this door open.
With many different e-mail protection solutions (each handling these situations differently), I doubt this trick will catch-on.
But if it does, Scott will give us yet another switch for this combination or teach us a combination that does this. ;)
PS Thank you.
I plan to share this trick with my local users that want to "sneak" passworded zips through the server.
