How is it going to overwrite OE if you don't download it?  I don't do auto 
downloads..if I download it it's because I choose to....not because they 
choose to.

So don't use it.  In fact get a stand alone email program like
Thunderbird.  I used Netscape mail back in 97 but  soon switched to
Eudora.   I'm sure MS will find a way to stick that 'improvement' in the
their automatic updates (so don't use that feature or afterward uninstall
it).  But you really need to back up all your emails in safe place before
MS overwrites OE.
