Jose: Yep! that's the one I was referring to. Thanks!
I'm glad you have a large readership, Roy. Those URLs
are the ticket. Actually, in the two hours I spent
investigating this, I did come across the slipstick
page, but I didn't want to have to go into the registry.
Since the URLs are posted on your blog, I figure its
okay to go ahead and do it. :-) btw, I tried the
forward--yesterday and again today--both from Outlook
2003 and OE, and darn if I can get it to work. The
attachment is gone, gone, gone on receipt. Thanks for
posting on this.
Dave. Weird. I remember it working for me. Must be some
sort of new service pack or something of the sort... oh
well. I'd advise you to just install the freeware add-in
from SLovakTech. WOrked for me flawlessly and for the
company I worked for at the time too.
Yeah, I don't know why it didn't. I tried several times
from and to O2003 and OE. Thanks again for putting some
light on the subject in your blog.
just update your security settings to allow it or update
the whole system. later.
Hi
I'm having a problem with blocked URLs and email
addresses in Outlook 2003. When I type a link (either
URL or mailto) into the main body of the email, and then
send it, the recipient who clicks of it is greeted with
the advice BLOCKED::mailto: yattah yattah....or even
BLOCKED::BLOCKED::mailto:
The "error" messages with the single
BLOCKED:: will often still allow a mailto: link to
generate a preaddressed email window, BUT, the
BLOCKED::BLOCKED::mailto: error messages (which,
incidentally, appear when the cursor is hovered over the
link) result in a window opening in IE, providing the
well known, "Page cannot be displayed"
message.
I have no idea what is causing Outlook 2003 to block the
links and email addresses I type directly into the email
window. I have tried inserting them the long way, by
going to "insert - Hyperlink..." and
typing the addresses into either URL or mailto
categories, but to no avail...they still end up blocked
at the other end. For the record, I am sending these
links to many people, sometimes BCC, but sometimes
direct, and they all suffer the block, regardless of
whether they're using Outlook or Express.
I've sought the advice of a number of Guru's (or is that
Guri?) but all are stumped.
If you have any ideas, my address is
ONTHEKNOLL@hotmail.com
Thanks

I tried the Forwarding trick to no avail in Outlook
2003. I hate it when big brother protect us from
ourselves.
