Hmmm, 160 in my personal mail since Thurs AM (35hrs?).

mimedefang will do this.

Sendmail Inc has an attachment milter, but you've got to
have switch, and that puts it into the 5 figure range
(I can do < $1000 without much approval, but solid 5 figures
means that this thing has to buff management's shoes and
integrate with HP OV well).

If you have Switch, already, there's an easy milter.

If not, mime-defang it.
