Amos and McGrath, thanks for the links. Guest, yes, you can just not open suspicious-looking email and attachments, but some spammers are very good at making their email look like it came from someone you know. I've come close to deleting email from friends and family unopened when I didn't immediately recognize the email address. So I'd like the option of at least opening the email when I'm in doubt.The other thing is some of my friends forward me things. They may inadvertently be forwarding me a virus.
