Outlook 2002 - url blocking

barge1 · Cadet Joined: Mar 19, 2004 Posts: 3 Location: USA

I understand the reasonng behind the new feature in Outlook 02, where it blocks and disables any message that contains a "url" or internet link. The problem I have though, is here at work on our network, me and my coworkers want to trade internet addresses through e-mail but are not able to because of this security feature. Question. Is there any way to temporarily disable this for legitimate sending or receiving??

Thanks!!

Im used to Outlook Express which i think is way better, but anyway if it is anything alike there should be a setting you can change in here....
Go to Tools>Option>Security(which will be a tab in the new window) now look for anything that would seem to realate to that. There should be a setting in there somewhere, if there isnt check if your network admin has a setting on the mail server changed.

barge1,

Sorry, but we cannot be offering advice that goes or may go against your company's policy in respect of unlocking any security feature that they have implemented. Neither can we be seen to offer a workaround which is in direct contravention of any security measure implemented by your company and its working practices and policies.

I do suggest that you take this matter up directly with your Line Manager or head of IT.

Thank you.
