There are 6 different versions of Outlook and Outlook Express. They ALL exhibit different behaviours, they ALL are really good at finding (and executing) code; therefore virus magnets. None of them behave 100% correctly. A very, very large bank BANNED it and, when someone insisted on using it anyhow and infected the file server with Yet Another Outlook Virus, got his ass hauled out of the building by security. Try another client and see if the problem doesn't go away. Eudora and Mozilla are free. As is PC-Pine, and several dozen other clients.
