I've got no idea what the "red ribbon" means, Charles. Here's a page that shows what all the icons in your inbox look like and what they mean, tho I can't see one there with a red ribbon on it. Maybe this was put there by your AV program or your firewall, if it's not one Outlook put there: http://snurl.com/5fn Linda Publisher ~ ABC ~ All 'Bout Computers Owner ~ Linda's Computer Stop http://personal-computer-tutor.com FREE MS Office eBook Tutorial http://personal-computer-tutor.com/library.htm -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Charles R.

The question is, you know the mail indicator (status)? Wll the envelope has what looks like a red ribbon on it. I have never seen this before, any idea what it is and/or mean? The attachment that is shown is a .dat file. I checked the logs of NAV and AVG and niether has any entry as far as this message is concerned. ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
