Compression

HTTP Compression is typically useful for speeding-up slow (e.g., dial-up) Internet connections by compressing the data sent, including attachments. When you use this option, the data is compressed and decompressed on your computer, which could cause some performance loss in some cases. This feature may not function properly if you are using Internet Explorer 6.0 or Netscape 4.7 browsers. WebMail will work better with more modern browsers.
