<div id="ygrps-yiv-1659482583">Hey group is there a way to not allow certain file types to be forwarded<br/>
to a mailbox on Exchange 5.5? We are getting bombarded with large file<br/>
attachments, mostly mpg&#39;s, and need to stop it. Any suggestions besides<br/>
beating users on a regular basis?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks<br/>
<br/>

<div id="ygrps-yiv-241266440">You could block the sender from the recipient(s). If you know who is <br/>
getting these files, send yourself a copy of their mail in the <br/>
Delivery Options for that mailbox. Find out who the sender is and <br/>
block him/her completely. If they&#39;re sending large mpegs, they can&#39;t <br/>
be sending anything too useful.<br/>
<br/>
Having a user wonder why they are no longer getting mail from someone <br/>
is almost as fun as administering regular beatings.<br/>
