I currently am using MS Windows 7 and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. This morning I placed an e-mail in the trash bin because I could not determinine its authenticity.
Recently, Office 2007 was upgraded to Office 2010 on my office computer. I also upgraded my home computer to Office 2010. In both cases, I have lost functionality I had within Office 2007 that enabled me to determine the authenticity of an e-mail prior to opening it.
Within Office 2007 Outlook, I had the ability to place the cursor over an e-mail within the Inbox, then right-click and locate "Option" from within the drop-down menu. Richt clicing on "Option" enabled me to scan the e-mail tracer to determine the originating exchange server as well as the return e-mail address. Viewing the e-mail tracer also enabled me to view the e-mail addresses of the other recipients.
"Option" enabled me to determine an e-mail's authenticity and to avoid opening potentially harmful e-mails. With the "Option" functionality removed in Outlook 2010, I will now be purposely trashing e-mails without knowing their legitimacy.
