I don't think you can configure the level one file extensions.  What they
have eliminated though I don't consider a bad thing.  Anytime you need to
send someone something though whether it be on a network or email a
compressed zip or rar file is always a better choice.  A lot less chance of
a file being corrupted this way and if a virus was in a compressed file it
would be isolated until opened.  At least it cannot start a problem just
because I opened an email with it attached.

i don't remember MS allowing the end user to configure what constituted
Level 1. a lot of angry users called up to ask what happened to their
attachments for several months.
