Hi,
We are developing one email application. Like every other email sites, the
user will be able to send .receive mails.Now what my problem is regarding
the storage of attachments.These are stored in a seperate directory without
execute permission. Users will be able to attach any type of documents
including the executables. U can imagine what will happen, once this is
permitted. We r runnig a win2003 server. I need some help in securing the
system.


regards Lara

I'm not sure what you're looking for in terms of help here, or how
this is related to IIS. You might want to look at basic Windows
administration functions and NTFS permissions. I'm also not sure why
there is an issue with attaching executables to a message, no other
email program in use has any problems with this.
