I don't use Outlook myself but acording to Microsoft Outlook can use 3DES
for Outlook 2002 and newer. Maybe you are using an old version of Outlook.
You may also want to post in the appropriate Outlook newsgroup. --- Steve

SUMMARY
By default, Microsoft Outlook 2002 defaults to 40-bit (RC2-40) encryption
when another encryption algorithm is not available. If you configure
Outlook
to default to 168-bit (3DES) encryption instead, and then you send a
message
to an e-mail client that does not support that encryption algorithm, the
recipient is unable to read the message


Steve:

Thanks for the input. Perhaps I should ask in an Outlook group. It just
didn't SEEM like an Outlook problem since I'm using the same version of
outlook at work on a different version of the OS (Windows 2000) and that
works great.

I'm running Outlook 2002, btw, if that's important.
