Summary

This test checks the setting for policy 'Do not preserve zone information in file attachments' on Windows hosts (at least Windows 7). The setting manage whether Windows marks file attachments with information about their zone of origin (such as restricted, Internet, intranet, local). This requires NTFS in order to function correctly, and will fail without notice on FAT32.
