Hello,

I have a pop3 account in outlook, and I'd like to be able
to NOT automatically dowload attachments when I receive e-
mails. Currently, whenever I receive any e-mail in
Outlook, Outlook automatically downlaods any
attachments. This is annoying because of all the viruses
that are being sent through e-mail. Is there an option
somewhere to disable automatic downloading of e-mail
attachments upon receiving them? I'd like to be able to
read the subject title and body of e-mails before
deciding whether or not to download associated
attachments to my computer.

Thanks,
Ayumu
