Allowing programs to send e-mail

B

Bill Burwell

My program is trying to send e-mail messages. The recipient list varies
from one message to the next.

Every time my program executes
objMessage.Recipients.Resolve
I get an Outlook message box with the following text:
A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in
Outlook. Do you want to allow this?

If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should chose "No".

Every time my program executes
objMessage.Send False
I get an Outlook message box with the following text:
A program is trying to automatically send on your behalf.
Do you want to allow this?

If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should chose "No".

In both cases manual intervention is required to click the program's Yes
button.
This drastically slows down what is supposed to be an automatic response -
and
it is very inconvenient keeping some one at the server just to click the Yes
button.

How can I tell Outlook that this program is ALLOWED to look at my addresses
and to send e-mail?

Outlook on the server where the e-mailing program runs is 2000 SR-1
(9.0.0.4527).

I am the backup admin on the server with this problem. I forwarded your
response to
the primary admin, and in the morning he & I will discuss it. Given the
purpose and
usage of this server, this sounds like a solution.

Thanks for the info.
