Problems after installing April security update KB911567 20-Apr-06

Last week Microsoft released several security updates, including one for Outlook Express. If you rely on saved *.eml files for templates, you do not want this patch! There have also been reports that the Address Book stops working or is blank after installing this patch.

After installing KB911567 Outlook Express no longer recognizes the X-UNSENT: 1 header in *.eml files. Many OE users rely upon that feature in order to save unfinished messages to be used as templates. Manually entering that header is also the only real way OE users have been able to resend a message. Simatic step 7 v5 3 crack download. Finally, the best way to work around an OE newsgroup bug relies upon the same use of X-Unsent:1 in a saved *.eml file.

The following is outdated thanks to patch KB918651:

Removing this extremely useful functionality is just not acceptable to me. I therefore recommend that you do not install KB911567. If it is already installed, uninstall it:

Then go to Windows Update and select Custom Install. There you can select to hide the update from being shown in the future. If you do not do this, the patch will be installed again automatically. Dvdvideosoft free studio serial key.

Update 29-Apr-06: Microsoft has taken notice of theproblems with the Address Book caused by KB911567. I disagree with their proposed resolution. Exporting and re-importing the Address Book results in losing all groups you might have created. If you use multiple OE Identities, all contacts from all Identities will be imported into the current Identity. Uninstalling KB911567 seems to make the allegedly corrupt *.wab file fully functional again. Software inpage free download.

I've received several questions regarding the consequences of running OE without the patch. Microsoft says there is some vulnerability, but so far have offered nothing more detailed than that. You therefore have a choice of accepting loss of functionality in exchange for protection against some hypothetical threat, or you can continue using Outlook Express with all features intact and not worry about things hypothetical that have not been shown to exist. The removal of X-UNSENT functionality is quite intentional, and so is not just a regression bug that might be fixed. This applies also to Windows Mail in Vista and any future products that might grow from OE/Winmail. This makes no sense to me. The OE Powers That Be seem to think we users won't notice that they are removing a useful feature instead of fixing deficiencies that have plagued us for nine years.
