 Outlook Group Policies not being applied
Hi there, I'm having trouble setting up Outlook 2010 security policies using Local Group Policy. I'm trying to set up some policies for attachment handling. I want to add file extensions to block as level 2 so that the user must save to hard disk before opening. I'm editing the following policies: User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Microsoft Outlook 2010 - Security - Security Form Settings Here I am editing the Outlook Security Mode to Use Outlook Security Group Policy. User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Microsoft Outlook 2010 - Security - Security Form Settings - Attachment Security Here I am editing the Add File Extension to Block Level 2, I enable and add extensions. Upon rebooting the computer I still find that Outlook is completely ignoring these policies. When I run the RSOP.msc I can see that the policies are being applied. I have searched the web extensible but can't find any reason for Outlook not picking up policies. Any help greatly appreciated.

Use the gpresult /r /z command and see if the policy is actually being processed and/or if another policy is overwriting your settings. Also make sure that the policy applies to the authenticated users group.
