Have I got a security problem in Outlook XP (2002)?
My Tracking Option regarding Read Receipts is set to "Always Ask" (I have
also tested with Never Send but get the same result). I use a macro to delete the emails which have been designated SPAM by my email server which uses the .Remove method. I have noticed that a very small percentage of emails still manage to send off emails, to seemingly random addresses with "NOT READ" prefixed infront of the original subject of the email, when they are deleted. The emails which are sent contain information which I can not read. I have tried manually deleting the original emails and get the same result so I do not think that it is a problem with the macro deletion. I use Trend Client Server Anti Virus software which is always up to date and my computers live behind a Smoothwall firewall. I run Adaware regularly and also I have visited the Norton site and run all of their checks and found no problems. I would be very grateful for any advice on this subject, are there any other settings within Outlook which I need to change or is this a problem with Oulook that no one else seems to have noticed. I have set a rule on my email server to catch all outgoing emails with "NOT READ" in the subject and put them in a holding folder for investigation, I wonder if anyone else has done that? I hope that someone can help me. Chrisg |
