What is the Safe Message Previewer?
When you open up an email message in most email applications, even if they are performing a “preview” function, information can be sent back to the originator of the message. This is done through the infamous “webbug”, a 1×1 transparent gif image that you can’t see but which still trigger an image request from a server, causing cookies to be sent by your browser. Also, if your email system isn’t correctly configured, previewing can also trigger scripts that could introduce a virus into your system. ChoiceMail’s safe message previewer is immune to these problems and so you can quickly examine a message if you’re not sure whether the sender is legitimate or not and you don’t want to wait for them to register.
