Information About "E-mail Wiretapping" Privacy Issue

Overview Several recent news reports have discussed a potential privacy issue involving a particular type of e-mail, known as HTML e-mail. We'd like to provide some additional information on the subject. In particular, we'd like customers to know that if they are using the most recent version of Outlook, or if they've applied the previously-released Outlook Email Security Update, they are not affected by the issue. Other customers can easily configure their mail programs to prevent it.
