Outlook Security Warning

[luceze]

Is there a way to turn off the security setting that prompts you to verify if you want an external program to send an e-mail through Outlook 2002.
The warning:
A program is trying to automatically send email on your behalf. Do you want to allow this?

Thanks for any help.

Take a look at the link from Microsoft's knowledge base.
I had this security warning start when I upgraded Office 2002/XP on 4 network system PC's. It looks to be an additional security feature MS is trying to implement. It would be better if it at least told you what program was causing the error to occur. At any rate, Outlook has this warning come up as soon as I try to reply/forward an email. It looks as though (initially) MS Word is trying to spell check the email, and is prompting the warning message. I finally selected yes, and have not seen any ill affects. It does not prompt me anymore when trying to forward/reply to email. I suspect it will prompt again if a malicious email were to attempt anything, or if another program affected by the security enhancement is activated.

Hope this helps!

I've read through 3 or 4 of this same message. Unfortunately, I still haven't found a solution yet.


Express will allow this no problem, but I cannot get the Stationary to work when sending a message from Access and the Signature is limited to 4k so that won't cut it it either.


I either need to bypass the security issue in Outlook or figure out how to enable the Stationary in OE when triggering from Access VBA.


Any ideas, thanks in advance. I wish I would have found this site years ago
