YES! I'm about to unsubscribe over this.

Shawn, I know you're busy, but can something be done to stop this? Other
list servers I subscribe to clip such attachments off before forwarding or
digesting.

Last I checked, I had over 30 copies of WINMAIL.DAT in my attachments
folder! One digest alone had FOUR of them attached!

I hope no one takes this as a personal flame. I'm sure they are running
their email "out of the box" as their vendor (who shall remain nameless to
keep their minions from filling my inbox with flames) intended.
