PES typically either strips the message of suspicious email attachments, replacing it with a text attachment containing a warning, or renames the attachment to render it harmless (defanging).
Currently, we are delivering all stripped and defanged messages to their intended recipients, but as of March 1, stripped messages will no longer be delivered unless users explicitly request it.
Defanged messages will continue to be delivered unless users specify otherwise. Note, however, that many defanged messages are legitimate and contain nonmalicious attachments such as .ZIP files, and we would urge users not to choose to have them discarded unless they are positive that's what they really want to do.
You may specify the desired behavior for stripped and/or defanged messages by going to https://password.uoregon.edu/husks/
