That's right. Trevor installed a virus scanner and a really good spam filter on our mail server and unless the virus jerks come up with new extensions, I never get virus attachments.
When they do invent new extensions every so often, he just adds them to the list. We filter out just about everything, so if I need to get an attachment from someone, I have a special email address that isn't used for anything else ever, meaning that no one coulcd get it off the net, and stuff is sent that way.
If you're interested in one, I can ask Trevor what he used. The "Spam Assasin" works pretty darned well, too. It gets about 75% of all my spams and dumps them in my trash.
