Does anyone know how I can stop Outlook
removing "potentially dangerous" attachments from income e-
mails. Especially, when I know the source and content of
the e-mail. Any help would be appreciated!
 
Hi, Debbie!

In the Registry Editor, open the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\Security.
In that key, add a string value named "Level1Remove".
Set the value of "Level1Remove" to include the file extensions of those files you want removed from
the Level 1 attachment list, separated by semicolons.

For example: exe;com;chm

WARNING!!! IT'S ALL UP TO YOU!!!

Good luck!
 
See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/getexe.htm for ways to get the
attachments off. There is an addin called attachment options if you don't
want to edit the registry yourself - link is in the article.

For more information on the security features, see
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup.htm

If you use OE, hit forward on a message or disable it in tools | options |
security.
