I'm using the Web frontend for the mail service, so it not always
that simple.
It is still funny that just the attachment got through.
If HTML mail is risky, how about putting the HTML in into an attachment?
Everybody would then know that there was another part that did not match
predefined criteria. The current situation is definitely not optimal.
Or a warning would be nice explaining that a part of the mail got rejected.
Thanks,
Harald
