I was told today by our tech people that many ISPs alter files that are attached to email, as an explanation why I was having trouble opening some .doc files in MSWord.
Sounds highly unlikely to me, unless they are working on some other agenda behind the scenes. I've had the idea of stripping attachments on my mail server, but I think that without absolute user knowledge and acceptance of such practice that it cannot be done (without risk). Ideally strip the attachment and replace with a link -- all attachments of the exact same content can share the link (perhaps with a unique name), hence smaller emails and much less duplication potentially.
Any comment? please
It surprised me to learn that some ISPs inject code / adverts in webpages! This was reported for a mobile service in the UK, but it might well happen in other places too... who knows? Cheers A.
