   I can understand they want to prevent the spread of malware...but
virus writers have put stuff in PDF and DOC files. So, it's like nothing
is safe anymore. Some viruses will spoof the name and address, to make
it look legitimate. For starters, if I see a message with "From John
Doe" with the subject line "John Doe" (or something like that), it's
likely malware, and I don't even bother to open it...it's deleted
without comment.
