I just purchased MS Office for Mac 2004 during Apple's month-long
promotion for an upgrade to 2008 with prepaid shipping. I am not sure
what 2008 will bring, but for now I am having difficulty finding the
default for encrypting and certifying emails. I do not want to certify
or encrypt my email. Each time I hit send (often) I have to de-select
the certificate and encryption options and it's driving me nuts.

Anyone know how to deselect this option for all outgoing mail?

This is not a general Mac group, it's for Mac VPC.

However my suggestion is to scrap that M$ Email program.
For some reason M$'s Email programs on the Mac leave much to be desired.

However, I use Mac Office 2004 and it's very good.

I'm currently trying to recover a friends Emails and attachments from
her OS 9 Outlook, which choked/died/is finished. She reminded me that
several years ago I advised her not to use troublesome Outlook.

BTW I'm an Eudora user on both OS 9 and X- evaluating Thunderbird.

There is no problem at all with Entourage 2004. It is very stable,
much more so than other wanna-be email programs.
