I get the follow now when I want to Send a message. "Unable to open the temporary file C:\Users\Dan\AppData\Local\Temp\nsmail.tmp. Check your 'Temporary Directory' setting." Where is this setting at and why do I suddenly see this? Most importantly is how do i fix it?

Thanks

Create an exception for C:\Users\Dan\AppData\Local\Temp\nsmail.tmp in your anti-virus software, so that it won't be scanned.
