|
|
Does Mailwasher use the same security settings/level as Outlook?
If the Preview window is open in Mailwasher are spyware or malware scripts able to be run? I keep the preview window in Outlook "off" to prevent this - should I do it in Mailwasher as well?
Thanks for the help,
-Matt- |

MW takes an entirely different approach - it does not render any email except as text. As such, none of the scripts that might be there are run, no objects are fetched, and no html/mime exploits can affect you. |
