Thank you. I've lost track of the names and numbers of the patches. What I do
know is that I brought this up in April 2006
http://www.ureader.com/message/3690870.aspx and seemed to recall being told
elsewhere that it was a known problem.
In any event, a couple of new systems and installations later it's still a
problem.

IF you have installed KB929123 then there is no need to install KB911567
as a later Version of msoe.dll [6.0.2900.3138] is included.
MS07-034: Cumulative security update for Outlook Express and for Windows

Under the 'Known issues with this security update' section there is no
mention of the issue you describe.
The other update, KB936181, has no relevance to OE.

One of the more current security patches places a newer version of MSOE.DLL
in the Outlook Express directory. This kills some very important Word macros
that output to email (creates an incoming rather than outgoing email).
I was advised Feb-2006 that MS was aware of this problem.
Am I risking security by avoiding this patch? If so, any suggestions on how
to deal with this?
I think the patch in question is:
