It seems that I need to set my XP outlook express so that
I can receive files and documents sent from my old Outlook
Express to my new XP Outlook express on my Dell. Please
help!!Anyone having the same problem? Email me please!
 
Adrienne;
Outlook Express:
Open Outlook Express.
Click Tools, click Options, click Security tab.
Uncheck "Do not allow attachments..."
This change that Microsoft implemented is to help prevent viruses and
other bad code being received with attachments.
It is very important to keep your antivirus updated and run it at
least weekly.

Outlook:

To correct this annoying issue with Outlook Express, you
first will have to download and install the Internet
Explorer 6.1 Service Pack 1. Then after this is
installed, open your Outlook Express, Click on tools and
then options. You will now have a Security tab. On the
Secuirity page UNCHECK the box next to "Do not allow
attachments to be saved or opened that could potentionally
be a virus" Trust me on this one, I am an Internet Tech,
I answer this question all the time at work.
