Abstract
A message directed to a recipient of a messaging client is intercepted and prevented from reaching the messaging client in a native sent message format as sent from a sender of the message. One or more portions of the message are rendered to a format that is incapable of execution by a device and the message in the format that is incapable of execution is delivered to the messaging client for viewing and/or printing by the recipient.
