No freakage here;  I did discover "noattach" however -
http://freshmeat.net/projects/noattach/?topic_id=29
- simply rejects messages with dumb attachment types (.pif, .scr, 
etc...).  Written in C so it is fast and no perl goop to install and parse 
every time a messages arrives.

And CLAM (free & Open Source) Anti-Virus gets to make the claim that it 
added the signature for MyDoom first, before those capitalist running dog 
services like MacFee (sp?), etc...
