After installing SP2, when I receive e-mail messages with graphics, I get
mostly all red Xs. Does anyone know what may be causing this? Thanks...

Email messages that contain graphics are frequently used by spammers to
"spy" on your email viewing habits and as such OE is trying to protect you
from this. If you really are not concerned by that then have a look under
tools / options / security.

Robert,

I probably should have thought of that. I changed the settings and it works
fine now. Thank you... Marc
