Jonzjob Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 "Windows Mail removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail :"I keep getting this message when I am trying to open attachments from known safe senders and it is getting more frequent and MORE annoying! Does anyone know how I can get to see these attachments please? I am not changing from Windowz Mail. I have tried others and the only other I can get on with was Outlook 2000 which won't run on a Vista machine.Talk about the tail wagging the dog!

Jonzjob Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Thank you Simon, I think that has sorted the problem. My query is that I didn't set that on so how did it change? Oh how I wish this thing was user friendly like a mainframe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After any M.S. update I re-check my setting just in case they have used the cheap security option of not allowing you to open 'ANY' attachments.
