Laurence, thanks for that info...
I thought one of the reasons for having the fookin Norton or McAfee, et al, was to scan incoming emails,

What a Catch22 situ.
I may live with the unhandy method I currently use to "send out" email, rather than disable the send part, permanently. As it is, I disable it for about 2 seconds, and re-enable it while the email is being scanned, Outbound.
Weird, but nothing surprises me, in terms of 'puters, programs, etc.
These suckers make the OBS and DME in our cars look bullet, fool and glitch proof by comparo, imo.
Thanks.
