Yeah, that is damn irritating!!! Plus they don't even do a good job of it. I attached a .tar.gz with only source code in it. The email got rejected saying it contains and executable!! Dumb idiots! As an alternative, use the good old method of manually base64 encoding or uuencode your attachments and paste them into your email as standard text. How sad that we need to resort to the stone ages because ISP's and people like GMail can't find better solutions to virus. Everybody should simply switch to Linux and kiss viruses goodbye! :-) PS: FPC comes with a base64 and I think a uuencode/decode units.
