Although I have Norton up to date I am a paranoid soul and my mother in law
told me it is a good idea to turn off the preview pane to prevent any more
than the header being seen until you double click. This seems like nonsense
to me, Outlook downloads all and not just the headers doesn't it? Whether
one looks at the contents or not (excluding ruinning exe's of course but
only a ninny would do that) the emails are there, aren't they?

If there is an advantage to turning off the previw pane, what about the Auto
preview? Is it safe to keep that open?

Thanks for any help,

Phil

PS Outloo 2002 as if it made any odds!
 
Thanks for that. There are several extensions missng from Outlooks list of
exclusions. Is it possible to add extensions to Outlook blocking list and if
so how? I can't find any way to do so and no mention in the help files.

Thanks for your helps again,
Phil
