I've heard there are text files that are emailable then if run on a pc 
actually do things.

I.e. a Ascii only file thats legally executable, this is probably a distortion
of a similiar story.

I have studied the x86 op codes to see if you can actually get much done
with an Ascii file.

But of course no email programs I know of have a method to autoexecute
a received email.
