If one blocked attachments and if someone was just sending a particular

I thought pics and other potential nasties can be embedded in html and
therefore just allowing/receiving them would be the damage done (for example
IIRC, Mail can be set up to load pictures in the message window without
having to 'open' the attachments sent along with the message but only if
html messages are allowed (ie Apple e-news newsletters), eliminating the
need to specifically 'click' on a link or such but I may well be just
shooting off again. Also some have literally thousands of fonts installed
and others have less than a hundred...compatibility would be an issue?
You misunderstand me. I don't mean apply a filter. The other lists I subscribe to do not allow attachments to be posted but do allow rich text, which is what I really mean. Sorry for not being clearer.
