Hi Naseer,

I think this is not problem on Outlook this is a restriction policy of outlook I think you can able to change this to allow EXE file attached to the e-mail. As for Win Fax Pro if the file extension will be EXE file try to make a a ZIP file extension then you can send it through e-mail just be sure the other side will have a zip software to extract what you have send and have you tried to rename the file and attach it to the e-mail after they received it tell them to rename it back to exe extension. Hope this works.

Cheers,
