Well, yes, of course, and I use that option religiously in my Outlook settings (what can I say, I *do* like "enriched" text e-mails, as well as the address book, calendar, and to-do list integration). However, auto-preview is not a panacea; Many HTML and RTF e-mails display none of the message body in the auto-preview tabular view. Those that don't and are not from a trusted source, I delete without reading. The trusted ones, usually E-mags and newsletters I signed up to receive, including JDJ, Red Hat "Under the Brim", etc., get a cautious look-see after I pass them through Norton Anti-virus. -- Roger ____________________________________________________ To change your JDJList options, please visit: http://www.sys-con.com/java/list.cfm Be respectful!
