James...please reread my mail...this is NOT a problem with me sending exe
attachments...I can send them fine...it's a problem with me RECEIVING exe
attachments in Outlook 2003 beta

Reread my original message and see if what you suggested applies ;-) 

There is no way I can send an email to people telling them I can't receive
exe files if I don't know who the people even are.

step 1: before sending, rename the attachment to .aaa
step 2: in the email, tell the person what you are doing -- renaming the
attachment to bypass security
step 3: after receiving, rename the attachment to .exe

Also works for most corporate filters.
