Allow access to unblock attachments

[Guest]

It's ridiculous that we're not allowed to unblock attachments. I am an IT
professional, not a user who doesn't know their hard drive from their
monitor. I know who I can trust in emails and who I can't and when I can open
attachments. I now have to use another email system in order to get to simple
attachments like small access files that hold personal contact information.

I don't understand why you took the ability to decide which attachments we'd
like blocked away. It's retarded. If my computer gets screwed up with a virus
I stupidly opened, I'm the one who's liable for that, not MS.

So, thanks for encouraging me to find more non-MS products.

A registry entry lets you customize the list of blocked files in Outlook
2002. See http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/getexe.htm#ol2002 for
links to info and tools. That page also lists the options available for
earlier versions.

If you're the administrator in an Exchange Server environment, you can
change the file blocking with administrative tools. See
