Hi. I would like to know if it is possible to completely prevent incoming attachments.
Thank you for an answer
what is your usecase? please elaborate
I thought about security. I want to prevent executable files from being saved on my Windows desktop. The hardest measure is to prevent the download of files completely. It would be best to prevent certain file types such as docx, jpg, …
did you got send random .exe files via Delta Chat in practise?
note, that, in contrast to many other messengers and email, the default use case we care for, Delta Chat is about private messaging. so spammers cannot access you that easily. you need to contact them before.
anyways, i think, this is more the job of a local scanner. also, afaik, it is not that easy to execute a downloaded exe nowadays. at least, it makes more sense to try to configure windows more secure instead of focusing on only one path, or trying to make path by path secure, where there is always one more path eg. what about links?
