There are two levels of attachment security. Access to Level 1 files is blocked and can't be changed. When you receive an attachment with a Level 2 file type, you will be prompted to save the file to your hard disk. If you use Microsoft Exchange Server, your system administrator can add and remove file types for both levels of e-mail security. If a file type is added to both levels, it will be treated as a Level 1 file type.

There are no Level 2 files by default. If you use Microsoft Exchange Server, your system administrator may add and remove Level 2 file types, or allow you to reduce a Level 1 file to Level 2.
