Outlook e-mail question.
I recall that when I first used Outlook Express I was advised not to have the "preview" option selected, as this was tantamount to "opening" the e-mail and thereby opening the door to all sorts of nasties to climb aboard my computer - despite not clicking on any "links".
Since then I've embraced Outlook - as part of Office 2007 - and have accordingly also switched off the preview page, but ... I notice that there is also an "AutoPreview" option, which shows the first few lines of every e-mail in the Inbox without selecting any particular one, so does this also open a Pandora's Box, i.e. should I not use this option also ?
Clearly one dumps obvious junk mail without opening, but it isn't always obvious, opening the mail proves to be a mistake - sometimes - but then it is too late, but does this AutoPreview allow one to assess before opening.
Clearly - When in Doubt, Do Nowt, but this brief indication of the message is quite useful, providing it isn't "dangerous" ?
