i try to be careful... I even risk not making contact with someone I know if I think in is a bit on the "unknown" side. so, yes, be careful out there. ------------- Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die |

If a file is attached to a E-mail and I am not expecting it , TRASH IT / I also use the lookup of who sent it if someone I don't know and subject line is in question . Outlook allows some options without actually opening E-mail to see the sender and IP ------------- Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do?

I don't know but in Mozilla Thunderbird you click on 'view source' to see everything about an email. problem is good ,er , BAD 'spoofers' know how to make it look like it's coming from a real person...... Hopefully you've got 'scan attachments' enabled AND you EMPTY your 'trash bins' often ! ------------- 3 D-14s,A-C forklift, B-112 Kubota BX23S lil' TOOT( The Other Orange Tractor) Never burn your bridges, unless you can walk on water |

| I keep getting emails from a cousin that passed away almost 2 years ago. His name comes up as the sender but the email address is strange. |
