Filter all attachments. The users who are blocked will just get the unblocked users to transfer files for them. Of course, I am being tongue in cheek because:

I am experiencing a "high volume" of users attempting to bypass my filter set by renaming the extensions. For example, I filter *.exe and about 15 other extensions. However, the users got smart at one point and renamed the extension to *.txt. So, I had to start filtering *.txt files. I'm to the point where I'm about to start filtering everything using a default filter of *.* I probably won't be able to retain this policy for very long so I'm wondering how others have handled this problem? I would like to filter all attachments but be able to designate certain users to be able to send and receive certain files. Most Exchange AV software affects all users. I'm hoping to see something like this in the next build of Antigen (hint, hint). Anyway, have not looked at Exchange 2000 yet so I'm not sure if it addresses this type of issue or not. Any comments?
