When opening some emails, I am prompted with an error of
"One or More ActiveX controls could not be displayed because either: 1) Your current security settings prohibit running ActiveX controls on this page, or 2) You have blocked a publisher of one of the controls. As a result, the page may not display correctly." |

The default behavior in e-mail client is to disable all the HTML nasties in e-mails. They are e-mail clients, not web browsers. That means, for example, that Microsoft e-mail clients will default to rendering HTML formatted e-mails under the Restricted Sites security zone. Why does this sender have to send using HTML format? Is there really anything in their e-mail that cannot be relayed using plain text? Why does this sender stick scripts into their e-mails? They won't run when the HTML gets rendered inside an e-mail client. If they want to run scripts and present you with a web page then put that content on a web server and provide a link to it in their e-mail whereupon the user can decide whether or not to visit that web site. Your sender is composing an HTML-formatted e-mail that violates the security that has been available in e-mail clients for over a decade. |
