Re: Read the archives - it's safer

[Connie Welch <cwelch@SOFTHOME.NET>]

I agree with Carl. I also learned from your smart LM_Netters a few years
back to set up a rule in OE that any message with an attachment goes into a
special folder called Attachments. It is bolded when a message with an
attachment is placed in there, and then I open the folder to see what is
there. If I wasn't expecting it, I trash it and empty the trash. That way I
don't worry about opening it inadvertently.
