Apparently you didn't read my post carefully so let me quote from my
original response:

"Or the decision maker who wouldn't authorize whatever
protections and policies the admin asked for "

Please not that I automatically assume that you have most likely asked for:

    1. the appropriate versions of outlook or outlook security patches that
block executable attachments,

    2. appropriate patch management software and/or staffing levels that
allow you to keep your patches updated

    3. network filters, proxies, firewalls, etc. to block ports used by
viruses.

and that your manager or corporate types turned down your request.

Second quote:

"There's little to no excuse "

I understand that there's always the possibility of a flaw being detected
and spreading a virus before Microsoft or AV companies issue appropriate
patches.
