Is there any way to password protect an attachment in Outlook other than setting the password on the original document? I am trying to disable wrong recipients from viewing an attachment without having to go through the encryption/digital id process.

I need to access a web page that on IE will give an error if the "Display a notification about every script error" is ticked in the Advanced section of Internet options. So if unticked gives no error message. I want to access the same page via the web interface in Outlook but there seems to be no way to suppress the error meesage in Outlook (as there is in IE).

Hi, We are using Outlook 2007, with MS Exchange 2003 SP 2 on a Windows 2003 server. In order to try to cut down on paper / toner waste, I'm trying to find a way of turning off printing emails from Outlook. Is it possible to do this in Outlook, or perhaps through Group Policies?

So how does password-protecting the original document allow wrong recipients to view the attachment? Why do "wrong recipients" get the attachment in the first place? It's FAR more secure to password protect the document and then to email the "correct" recipient with the password separately!

Yes, that is the no brainer ---but, we have an office of employees handling sensitive material for multiple clients. If they are doing their job correctly, the suggestion would keep material from getting into the wrong hands. The problem lies in the autofill address field. If they are not paying attention, when a name pops up on the default list, it gets chosen and off the email goes to the wrong "intended" recipient. If there were passwords that we could implement to each client, the email going to wrong "intended" recipient would not be able to open that confidential material. Any other suggestions?

The recipients are outside of the organization.
