OK, so I seem to post only about extensions lately... Gmail is going to block .js which mirrors in the wild attempts in zip files as well that we have seen VERY minorly in recent days. Gmail will block .js file attachments starting February 13, 2017 <http://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2017/01/gmail-will-restrict-js-file-attachments.html> Posted: 25 Jan 2017 01:30 PM PST Gmail currently restricts certain file attachments (e.g. .exe, .msc, and .bat) for security reasons, and starting on *February 13, 2017*, we will not allow .js file attachments as well. Similar to other restricted file attachments <https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6590#messageswattachments>, you will not be able to attach a .js file and an in-product warning will appear, explaining the reason why. If you still need to send .js files for legitimate reasons, you can use Google Drive <http://drive.google.com/>, Google Cloud Storage <https://cloud.google.com/storage/>, or other storage solutions to share or send your files.
