Hi all,
After rebooting my computer, everything works fine, except that when I go to my sent emails (to save them in another folder, etc.), I get this message "OE removed access to the following unsafe attachments in your mail [+ name of attachment]."
My clients have confirmed they've actually received the attachments, so what does this message mean? Is there anything I should do?

My clients have confirmed they've actually received the attachments, so what does this message mean? Is there anything I should do?
I have Windows XP, but I'm afraid I can't be more 'technical' than that, except to say that afaik my computer is automatically and regularly updated.
Many thanks in advance for your help - and for using simple terms when writing to a seriously IT-challenged person like me

In Internet Exporer chose Tools/Options, select Security tab and uncheck "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus".

I'm not sure whether the problem has anything to do with this, but you can check. In Outlook Express, go to:
Tools>Options>Security>Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus.
If the box is checked, perhaps that's why you cannot save the e-mails containing the attachments. Zip files, for example are often included in the "potentially harmful" attachments.
Uncheck the box, and if necessary close Outlook and restart your compute... See more I'm not sure whether the problem has anything to do with this, but you can check. In Outlook Express, go to:

Uncheck the box, and if necessary close Outlook and restart your computer to see if this solved the problem.

Philippe,
You said the problem regards attachments in your SENT mail. I suppose then that you have the original files on your computer. Thus, if your concern is keeping proof that you've sent along XYZ file to your client at time T, the email still lists the files you sent, even if you can't access them from Outlook. If you can access the original files just fine and if your client has received them, then I shouldn't worry about it too much.

Do you have any difficulties with attachment in mails you RECEIVE?
Just to be on the safe side, run your antivirus and then, if all is clear, defragment your hard drives. The odd error messages should disappear IMHO.

You don't have to rely solely on Outlook Express. I think it's a good thing to have at least one more on your computer and set up ready to go, in case of problems like this.

I've followed Vesna's and Daphne's advice and it worked!
