Recently my Outlook (not O Experess), has been blocking
itself from sending certain attachments... Namely my
Access attachments that I am trying to send to my home
email address... This does not happen with all
attachments just certain ones.... Any idea on why this
might happen???
 
Yeah, well it sends the email just not the attachment..
So simply just zip the file and send it... There is no
way to send a .mdb file alone, correct... Well I mean no
easy way?

No, it's not blocking the sending it's blocking access to the file.

The attachment should still be there. Make sure you are not sending in Rich
Text Format and that both sides (receiving/sending) are allowed to sent the
file types listed on the link I posted.

You can use a compressing add-in that automatically zips the file for you
when sending a blocked file type;

If you decide to order use "4PM76A8" to get a discount
