Paul, It's the latest security feature that M$ thought up. It supposedly prevents "call-home" spyware from calling home without your permission. It is a pain in the *** (you know where) when it is your own application that is trying to send e-mails. Charles Wortz Software Development Division Texas Education Agency 1701 N.

Under Windows NT the email got sent automatically without a problem, BUT we have just gone to Windows XP and before it sends an email the following happens : 1. The user gets asked for his/her Outlook profile name. 2. The user receive's a message saying a program is automatically trying to send an email, and asks for confirmation that Outlook should send the email.... Has anyone else come across this ?. If so, is there anyway around this problem as sometimes it will ask me to confirm the email to each individual recipient (sometimes upto 15 people), and this can be very irritating.... Thanks for any help in advance...... Paul Hartland
