Sometimes when I send files from my PC at work to my home
e-mail, the file attachments are blocked by Outlook
because they are "potentially unsafe". This more or less
defeats the purpose of having e-mail, because I then have
to copy the file onto a disk and bring it home with me.
Both my work location and home location are protected
with updated McAfee virus software. Is there any way I
can stop this blocking of attachments?
