Justin,

Thanks so much.

A couple of quick questions because I don't know the answer.

What's the "B" declaration?

Does declaring the Content-Type = application|audio cover ALL 
executables (I mean, all that may arise - it looks as though your file 
extension list is very thorough)?

Also, the very last line, am I correct in saying that you're dropping 
those messages in a folder called "zzz-executables/"?

Are you doing that to make sure that perhaps there wasn't something 
actually legitimate that came in with an executable attachment?

I guess I need to create a copy of .procmailrc now and drop that recipe 
in there.

Do I also need a .forward file for each user's home directory?

Thanks!

Chris
