I filter all html messages too trash anyway if I get them in the first place 
as I have found that no intelligent beings use html!  :)  A lot of ISPs will 
strip attachments that they have no tool to virus check as a suspected virus 
and rightly so.  An ISP really HATES being pegged as a virus spreader by 
their peers, it shows a real lack in professionalism.  Mine pipes it through 
an outside service which inturn increased my rates to cover the cost so again 
an innocent is a victim.
