You can adjust things under Tools | Junk email options and he can put you
into the Safe Senders category without having to turn off the Junk mail
filtering completely.

Be advised that when he goes to Win7, there is no email client and he will
have to get one. If he is used to XP, then he can clone that machine using
Disk2vhd (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../ee656415.aspx),
and then run the old machine within the Win7 OS as a virtual machine and
continue to use OE that way, if he is set in his ways and prefers the
current email client.

PABear was referring to Stephen's mentioning the "hack" to put WM on W7
machines. It is a procedure left for people who have more advanced PC
skills and experience. There are many people reading through posts (that
they didn't write) for solutions to mail problems, and they may think this
is easy, try it, and mess up their PC's. Then they come back here to
complain about it not working, placing blame, and raising heck. It is best
not to mention something like that unless an Op is specifically asking for
it - otherwise you open a can of worms.

My mistake, I didn't go back and re-read the posts in question (gaffe !) -
But still, suggesting to install virtual XP for OE most likely beyond
expertise of user . . . . . I respect MVPs years of experience way too much
to argue with them.

As far as my personal assistance, I'm happy I can help anyone ! LOLOLOL!!
One of the things my clients always commented positively about was my
willingness to explain things in detail, use of everyday terminology rather
than techie-talk, and my "stay on it 'til its resolved" ambition. They get
really sensitive about what they don't know, and people who do know not
taking time to educate them or talking over their heads.
