I'm not sure how many of you folks use this email program, but I have an issue I can't seem to find an answer for. To avoid Tbird crashes, I have found that I have to right click on an Autocad file, select "send to" and "mail recipient". This brings up a write page with the file attached, but there's this auto text crap that shows up every time I send a file this way. This auto text doesn't appear when I'm writing a normal email, just in this "send to" manner. I really get tired of having to delete this stuff every single time, so I want to set it up so that it doesn't appear. This is what it looks like. Can someone help me on this?

It's the Window's "Send To" functionality that is adding that text.

The following worked for Windows XP. Edit your registry to eliminate the warning part of the message:

[FONT=&quot]Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System][/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]"WarningMsgInBody"=""[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]Either manually edit the registry to add WarningMsgInBody with a blank value or copy/paste the above lines [/FONT][FONT=&quot]into Notepad [/FONT][FONT=&quot]and save the file as a *.REG file type (e.g. remove-warning.reg). Then[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]double-click the reg file to update the registry.

Note, this only prevents the "Note ..." part of the message. The "[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]message is ready to be sent ..." part will still be included.[/FONT][FONT=&quot]

Thanks Roger. I'm quite "green" when it comes to registry fixes, in fact, I don't even know how to get to the registry in Win 7. I'm also kinda hoping I can get rid of all of the text. Fixing part of it isn't a solution I was looking for. I'd still want to delete the rest of it. Maybe that geek next door has a solution. (my neighbor built this comp for me)
