The greentext says “he asks for some files”, that doesn’t sound like an executable, which usually gets blocked by the mail system anyway (even in a zip, if there’s no password on it).
But yeah, that is one way to have it broken, besides Windows refusing to run a random .exe
I don’t use software that imposes arbitrary restrictions on me for my “protection” and suggesting that this functionality is baked into email itself is just factually incorrect.
You can’t email exes, but once you zip it there is no exe, it’s a zip. If outlook automatically unpacks and scans the zip (which i doubt) you can always password lock the archive
Edit: And my email them i mean attach them in outlook
If it’s an executeable with dependencies in the archive it might not run without being unpacked.

Can’t email executables.
Yes you can.
Outlook blocks it by default so if you allow exe’s to be emailed… you’re pretty stupid.

Good for you??
more like uhh… bad for everyone cause you presented false information as fact
Ladies and gentlemen, the Ego at work
Or maybe you’re not stupid and don’t require a program to automatically block files for you since you know what you’re doing.
