[ARIN-consult] Consultation on Prohibiting Attachments on ARIN Mailing Lists

[Austin Murkland]

* Question:  Should attachments be prohibited on ARIN public
mailing lists?

Maybe. Limiting sounds like a good middle ground; what, if any, scanning is
presently done on messages?

* Question:  If yes, should this include all ARIN public mailing
lists, or only select lists?

It should include all mailing lists, it may just be easier altogether to
modify the subscription preferences and add a checkbox for "strip
attachments" so each member could make this choice for themselves/their
environment.  While it may not be a trivial amount of work on the backend
to make that happen, I think it would be easier than maintaining multiple
sets of rules for multiple lists.
