Attachment blocking in Outlook 2002

Comment:
In Outlook 2002, I cannot send certain email attachments, specifically Access databases. I always get "Outlook blocked access to the potentially unsafe attachment", I understand this is because of a security feature built into Outlook 2002. But can I turn it off for sending emails.

Hmm...Not sure in Outlook 2002/XP, but Outlook 2000 shouldn't be too much different, so here's how to do it in 2k and maybe that'll at least get you pointed in the right direction.
1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. Click the Security tab, and then click Attachment Security.
3. Select the security method you want.
