It has been impossible to send an .exe from Outlook since Outlook 2000 SP1. I imagine it would be the same for Pocket Outlook. Even if you could send one I'm not sure what mail client could open it.

I have confirmed that you can send a .exe file from the Q. If it is being blocked it is being done by the client that received it.

Wow! I hadn't worried about needing anti-virus for my Q until now. I can't believe it lets users e-mail executables.

Syndil - Are you using Sprint's SMTP server?

Yes I am. I suppose other SMTP servers could block .exe attachments--hadn't thought of that.
