Without wishing to cause offence, and as a person not in the 'inner sanctum'

the LUG.??

I, and I am sure loads of others, access Email via a windows box and we have
a policy of refusing attachments.

Is there a specific reason for posting in this way  ?

I've never noticed such behaviour. In any case, the only sane reason for automatically removing attachments, as you imply, is for executables. This would seem to be a PEBKAC in your server room...

It is well-known that I am blunt and unsophisticated. It's largely your fault if you object to this.
