Kirk,

Are you sure that Trend is stripping the .exe? If your email client is
Outlook 2002, it will prevent access to "potentially harmful attachments"
like .exe and .mdf (Only ones that I have found so far) Whilst I haven't
done this so far, apparently there is a setting on Exchange itself to
control what can be received.

Everyone,

I have Trend Scan Mail for Exchange and it keeps stripping off .exe files
sent to me via email. I have this setting disabled so that I can receive
.exes??? In the console I have the "Enable attachment blocking" unchecked.

Why am I unable to not receive exes?????

Thank you in advance!

Subject: Trend Micro Interscan 3

        Hi everybody,

  I'd like to install a software for anti-spamming and mail virus check.
Someone told me to put Trend Micro Interscan 3. I've got Nestcape 3.51 as a
mails server.
  I'd like to know if this software is "vulnerability free" (I doubt), there
good point and weak points.

        Thanxs for future answers

 PS: sorry for my frenchee english ;o)
