Question

i went to tools/trust center/
but am not sure where to go from there

Answer 1

Tell it to stop blocking attachments that may be suspicious, its a check box somewhere.

Answer 2

If your using your local ISP you may have to do the following, I had to set mine up also.





1. Click to open Outlook 2007 and click Tools > Account Settings.

2. On the E-mail tab, select the New button.



3. If you are asked to select an E-mail Service, select Microsoft Exchange, POP3, IMAP, or HTTP and click Next. If you are not asked to select an E-mail Service, proceed to Step 4.



4. Enter your name, your complete FrontierNet, Citlink/CTAZ, NewNorth, Epix, or GVNI e-mail address, and Password. Place a checkmark in the field to the left of Manually configure server settings or additional service types and click Next.



5. Select Internet E-mail and click Next.



6. Under Server Information, select POP3 for the account type. Enter the appropriate POP3 and SMTP servers. For Logon Information, enter your complete FrontierNet, Citlink/CTAZ, Newnorth, Epix, or GVNI e-mail address for the User Name and your password in the Password field.



7. Click More Settings, and select the Outgoing Server tab.



8. Place a checkmark in the box to the left of My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. Make sure Log on using is also selected. Enter your complete FrontierNet, Citlink/CTAZ, Newnorth, Epix, or GVNI e-mail address for the User Name, and enter your password in the Password field.



9. Click OK, and then click Next.



10. Click Finish.



That's it!

Answer 3

Your ISP can also have a limitation set for outgoing email. This limitation is the size of an email with the attachment. In some cases it's allotted for 2mb.

Answer 4

Use your browser to log into the e mail account.  If it is your ISP e mail handle, then flow in the process the ISP's website;  if Yahoo, Hotmail, etc., then flow to that website and log in.  

Answer 5

To help protect your computer, Microsoft Office Outlook does not allow you to receive files of certain types (such as .exe files) as attachments, because of their potential for introducing a virus into your computer. Outlook blocks these files by default.



ZIP allof your attachments instead!!
