Kathryn,

>If you don't absolutely need it in rich text or html, then

These are emails from my clients, of which I get dozens a day.  And yes it
does appear to have something to do with html emails.

I assume that the offending email is not plain text. If you don't absolutely
need it in rich text or html, then open the email,  then Edit > Edit Message
and then Format > Plain Text. Close the message and answer yes to saving it.
I've never had your problem, but I'll bet that clears it up without having
to do that security tab bit every time.
