I have not made any changes yet, but MSE isn't cutting it for my needs. I get a lot of files and attachments and it does not pick it up, even when I examine the files to see what they are. Some may be harmful, so need something that works. I don't expect perfect, but Thomas recommended it, so would love to hear how it works before I comit to getting MSE off and doing all of this work to get nowhere.
