-=PCTechTalk=- Re: OE removed attachment

Yes, that IS a protection, but it's like super security (right, you can't
GET any attachments!), but they won't open by themselves, you still have the
option to open or not, so it's a bit of a trade-off I suppose. Of course,
you never open an attachment unless you recognize where it's from. ~Glo
