Re: eml files read-only

IMHO, MS felt the patch was a necessity while I do not. MS created this patch with absolutely no input from any OE MVP. (Remember we don't work for MS. We are only volunteers). I have templates of my own and had to uninstall the patch. If you have been reading these posts, you will also note that many people have lost their Address Books due to this patch.

MS is getting plenty of feedback and personal opinions from us on this issue. How much they listen to us, and what they will do about it is an uncertainty.

Mr. Bruce Hagen,

I don't want to be critical, but how can opening up your system to
vulnerabilities that were patched by KB911567 ever be considered a "fix?"

MicroSoft broke something that many of us use virtually every day. I would
certainly hope that someone in your position would make sure that they get
the feedback so as to fix what they broke.

I'd like to thank you for posting information that showed WHY it was broken
though.
