Outlook must download content from a server

[Jan Schmidt]

When i try to forward or reply a mail with html content.
Everytime pops up a question:

To complete this action, Outlook must download content from a server other
than your e-mail server. ... and so on.
Buttons are OK or CANCEL


If i click OK, the content is loaded, if i click CANCEL the whole action is
canceled.
To send the message i am forced to click OK.
If i define in the Options that content should not be loaded it works, but
thats not what i want.

I would like to decide everytime if the content should be loaded or not.
So if i click CANCEL i want to send the message without downloaded content
(with the knowledge, there might be some broken links inside the mil
afterwards...)

Is it possible to define it somewhere??

regards

Jan

Outlook 2007 will allow that choice. For now, you have to live with the choices you have. You could always convert the message to plain text before forwarding if you don't want the external images to download.

great :-(

no patch, hotfix or vba script avilable for it?

Was there something you didn't understand about the one available workaround that I suggested?
