Is there any way to keep pictures in html emails from
opening? I know you can turn off the preview pane and
they don't open unless you open the email, but sometimes I
get fooled by spam and open it only to see a large YOU-
KNOW-WHAT or pics of drugs or whatever. I get legitimate
business email with strange headers so it's hard for me to
tell sometimes.

Yahoo's email actually lets me do this, not that I want to
switch to Yahoo. Oh, I have Outlook 2000.

Thanks!

I suggest you try "disruptor ol" (google for it or hit
disruptor.de). it's a com-addin for outlook (versions 2000
and later). it's a quick download and an EASY install.
There are no settings to change in outlook unlike other
spam products. Also unlike ANY other spam product
Disruptor "secures" email: removing dangerous content,
attachments, removing offsite images, and optionally
rendering HTML to harmless text all while retaining the
original layout of the message. :)
