Outlook is blocking .mdb files

[Mark]

I am running Outlook 2000 SP-3 on Win XP Pro. I am not
running MS Exchange Server. Outlook is blocking incoming
attachments with .mdb extensions. The help files say
that .mdb is a Level 1 security file type. Is there anyway
to change or override this setting?

Why does Microsoft not think that we want to be able to
control this setting???

Thanks if you have an answer!

It's in a registry setting.
You can add a value and allow the file extensions that
you specify..
Let me find the info for you...
