Screen outgoing messages for attachments John[ at ]NMU 24.08.2006 16:35:01 I would like to find a utility that checks the body of outgoing messages for the words "attach" or "attachment", then checks to see if the message actually has a file attached. If there isn't a file attached, a warning flag would pop up to see if I really intended to send the message with no attachment. Similar warnings pop up if you forget a subject, for example. Is there any way to do this, either with a third party utility or with a rule in Outlook? Thanks! JER
