Turning on Links in Outlook

Due to recent outlook security patches the Link option in outlook has been
turned off, so when someone receives a link via email, the user cannot
connect to it with out turning off the option. I would like to create a GPO
for my network to turn the option back on, but there doesn't seem to be a way
to do so. Is there some way to do this that we are not seeing here? If so I
believe a way needs to be developed. Thank you
 
which registry keys need to be changed/added. The article doesn't say
anything about registry changes.

links should always work unless outlook suspects they are phishing attempts.
it's a reg key setting I believe, so turning it on permanently should be
possible via a logon script or gpo.

No, there's no option to turn off the blocking of links on phish-suspect messages.

I think it's this value in the profile:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Outlook\0a0d020000000000c000000000000046
000b042a

the other junk mail keys (safe and blocked lists) are above it.

BTW - this is for messages that fail the phisihng test in folders other than
junk email. links are disabled in junk email for security reasons.

it's 00 00 if off, 00 10 if on. I think. open the reg edit to the key and
toggle the setting in ol - F5 to refresh the screen in the reg editor.

if you have the skills, possibly. But for most people just enabling it on

so after the sp2 came out, is there an update for developers who want to use
the new features of Outlook for example?
Where could I find documentation about sp2 and enabling the links for a
message programmatically?

Thanks
