"Bug" in Outlook 2k3....or just a feature request.

[DeadZone]

Hi;

I hope someone from Microsoft monitors these newsgroups,
since I want to report a problem with Outlook 2003. I
REALLY like the feature that prevents the downloading of
graphics attached to HTML enabled messages. It really
helps with the speed & prevents a lot of adware & spyware
at my site. However, I noticed today that if you hit
reply, or forward on an email where the pictures aren't
downloaded, Outlook 2003 WILL download the pictures.
Now, while I'm fairly good with not opening mail from
questionable sources, some of the folks here aren't so
good, and I'm really concerned that sometime, someone
will hit reply or forward on a picece of unsolicited mail
& get tracking, spyware etc...on their computer.

Would it be possible to request that if I hit forward or
reply on a message that it not download the graphics?

Thanks
