Mondo embarrassment! I run an email list using Mailman with nearly 900
subscribers. It's a news announcement list which only 8 people can post
to. Only a couple of hours ago a mail got sent to this list with my
email address in the "From:" field and FxSasser.zip as an attachment.
Yikes! :(

I've just reduced the allowable body length down from 40kb to 5kb which
I hope will catch anything with an attachment. But does anyone have any
suggestions of how I can block anything with an attachment from getting
to this list?

kind regards; sol
