Outlook should accept .MDB attachments

[Guest]

Suggestion to Microsoft Development Group for Outlook.

Outlook should accept .MDB attachments
Outlook allows .xls .doc .ppt but not .mdb Outlook blocks .mdb
attachments. I think this is no more harmful then allowing .xls file
attachments.

I had to set up a totally different email account and a different email
program to allow my customers to send me their .mdb files. Yes, some can
WinZip them, that is great, some can rename a file, some simply struggle with
attaching a file period.

Assuming that you are referring to the attachment blocking feature, see
http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/getexe.htm on how to release MDB
files from being blocked in Microsoft Outlook.

PS - Outlook Express has a checkbox @ tools > options > security tab that
deals with potentially dangerous attachments.
