And that doesn't matter at all. None of those attachments can run on a Mac
anyway. It does no harm at all to delete them - or not delete them, for that
matter - after they download. For us on Macs, they're just more spam, not
viruses. It's probably a good idea to to delete them right away as it
ensures that you'll never inadvertently forward them on to Windows users -
that would be very bad.

PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X.
It's often impossible to answer your questions otherwise.
