Boy am I getting tired of receiving messages which contain NO clear text
message text, but which contain a blasted WINMAIL.DAT attachment which
cannot be read.  There is another batch of these messages coming through
the list again today.

Is it possible to filter email entering the HP3000-L to automatically
DELETE messages which have NO text and just a WINMAIL.DAT attachement, and
send a form letter type reply to the sender stating that their message
cannot be accepted since it lacks a clear text message component?

If it is possible, how soon can it be implemented?
