CIW 1D0-61A Exam - Topic 11 Question 112 Discussion

You are expecting a very important file from a co-worker in a remote office to be sent to you through e-mail. You finally call the co-worker and tell him that you have not received the file. He informs you that he sent the file yesterday, but will send it again immediately. After some time, you still have not received his e-mail message. You contact the Technical Support department and ask them for help. After some investigation, Technical Support finds the e-mail from your coworker with an attachment named salesnumbers.exe in the spam folder of your e-mail client. What is the most likely reason that the e-mail message was filtered out?
C) File attachments with an .exe extension may contain malicious code.
A) Messages from remote offices are blocked on internal e-mail.
B) The attachment's file size exceeds the size limits of the e-mail filter policy.
D) The file name of the attached file exceeds the file name length of the filter policy.

A is unlikely, we get emails from remote offices all the time.

I remember something about file extensions being a common reason for emails going to spam, so I'm thinking C is the most likely answer.

I lean towards C as well, but I wonder if B could be relevant too if the file size was large. I can't recall the specifics on file size limits.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like A could also be a possibility. We had a practice question about remote office emails being blocked.

I think the answer might be C because .exe files are often flagged as potentially harmful. I remember discussing this in class.
