Unsafe attatchments on e-mail
Posted by Blaine on February 5th, 2004


I received e-mail (outlook express) with attached files.
I requested. Attatchments are showing but are not Live.
When I right click on message a header states "OE removed
access to the following unsafe files in your e-mail"
One is a word file from my daughter the other is a
embroidery file from an associate. I don't know why either
of these would be unsafe. I have looked through the Help
files on OE but cannot find anything about unsafe
attatchments. Any ideas?
Thanks and have a nice day,
Blaine

In OE, open the Tools menu, Options, select the Security Tab. Under the
first section "Virus Protection", the fourth item down, make sure there is
not a check in the "Do not allow attachments........".
I suspect that is probably what is blocking your attachments.
Heirloom, old and not everything is a bug
