OL2002: Users Can Read Nonsecure E-mail as Plain Text

This article describes a new feature that is added to Outlook 2002 in Microsoft Office XP Service Pack 1 (SP-1). This feature permits users to configure Outlook to read all non-digitally-signed e-mail or nonencrypted e-mail messages in plain text format.

This change also permits system administrators to configure policies that require users to read all non-digitally-signed e-mail or nonencrypted e-mail messages in plain text only.

Digitally signed e-mail or encrypted e-mail messages are not affected by this update and cannot be modified by a system policy. Digitally signed e-mail or encrypted e-mail messages are read in their original formats.
