janhoek Problem is caused by McAffe add-in. Apparently solution is to change McAfee Settings
Antispam \ Outgoing Email Scan \ unclick 'Add a McAfee Signature to indicate emails are safe'

I have same issue, but I don't find this option to unclick outgoing emails: See screen shot. I also don't find it at other places. Any ideas?

I went back to retrace my steps in McAfee Live Anti-Spam and the option for scanning out going email is gone. McAfee is acting weird. I suggest you get ahold of McAfee tech support and have them assist you, but McAfee is definitely the problem as when I deselected the option to scan outgoing mail the problem stopped.

Thanks for this.. I've been banging my head over this for months.
Have just tried the setting change on McAfee, will see how it goes..

The same happens with me. Were do you update the settings? in McAfee or in Outlook? I couldn't find the place in McAfee..?

PerSo2035 I have just done this myself in the hope it will stop this infuriating problem. Its is in McAfee - I clicked on the little setting icon in the top right. Scrolled down to Antispam, then in anti spam scrolled down to outgoing email cicked on that and unchecked the box for the McAfee email sig as suggested. Really hope this works as it had been a real problem for me.
