Hi Susan:

You can not directly send or receive any files with an .exe, .com. vis, cmd
or mdb extension through any MS mail products. This is now considered a
security breach. Either change the extension or ZIP the file up before
attempted to send it.

Jim

I'm back to using OE after a number of years using Outlook, which is hosed
right now. I have an email with an attached mdb, which OE won't let me open
or save. It didn't tag it as infected when I downloaded it. I thought OE
allowed access to everything???
