Good idea Rick. I think that we should do that and just post it
in-line to avoid attachments.
Apologies to all.
I hope it at least helped all those that commented on this
subject (most of which I didn't have an email address for).

Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] DO NOT SEND ATTACHMENTS TO LIST
fwiw imo, batch files are executed via the command process and therefore
they can easily be used to cause malicious intents. Most email admins
probably prohibit the sending/recieving of batch files *.cmd for the
computer security/safety of their clients. You could probably post the
contenets of the batch file *.cmd in raw ascii format to share with
all.. should be ok?
