Dear Sue,

Thanks for responding.

The form we use are simple submit forms, e.g. <FORM
ACTION="mailto:someine@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"; METHOD=POST > and the submit
button is very simple too: <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT id="SUBMIT"
value="Submit">. On most computers, when you hit submit, and go through
all warning, new blank message will be created with POSTDATA.ATT file
attached, that will contain all results gathered from form. This message
will be placed to Outbox folder. But recently, only thing I get when
clicking Submit button, is a new mail message appearing on the screen.
No file is attached to it, and it doesn't putted to Outbox. I reset all
Internet Explorer Security settings to default, and it doesn't helped.
Search through internet returned no results too. I'm puzzled.

You didn't say what this Submit button does, whether it runs
code or performs a GET or POST against a web site, as the
Submit button on a web page would normally do. The
distinction is important, because Outlook normally doesn't
run code in HTML messages.
