mesg question

Hello all,
If my memory serves me correctly, there was a security hole
if 'mesg -y' which could be setup in a users .profile.
Is this still any concern with the newer SCO releases?
Below is some info on 'mesg' for 5.0.6
# pwd
/opt/K/SCO/Unix/5.0.6Ga/bin
# ls -ls mesg
66 ---x--s--x 1 bin terminal 32616 Feb 26 2002 mesg
# cd /bin
# ls -ls mesg
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Feb 26 2003 mesg -> /opt/K/SCO/Unix/5.0.6Ga/bin/mesg
TIA,
- Jeff H
