How to let CS professors receive program submissions without email blocking them

["John R. LaPrad" <jrl () SVSU EDU>]

Hello Colleagues,

We have an issue with Computer Science professors receiving program submissions from students. If students send these 
programs through email, the system often blocks the email because of executable attachments. We have an LMS that allows 
assignment submissions that would work, but there are some exceptions where email is still preferred.  We've talked 
about having students change the extensions, but that does not work consistently. Our CS professors would like us to 
put an exception in our email security rules to allow all attachments to them.  I don't think that's a good idea.
I am wondering how others are handling this?

Thank you for your time.
