Restricted Files as attachments in your email

As part of our continuing effort to improve the security of your email accounts, we will be making a change to our list of restricted file attachments. 


Beginning on Monday Sept 15, 2014, we will no longer allow executable (.exe) files inside of compressed (.zip) attachments. Incoming messages containing a restricted file attachment will be rejected and the sender will receive a “bounced” email notification informing them of the restriction. 


This change will further help to protect your email accounts from malware, specifically emerging threats which may not be detected by our multiple levels of virus detection.
