I use vba in Access to send out emails with attachments. It worked great in
2000, but 2003, with all its security features, requires the user to
authorize use of email addresses and then authorize each and every email that
goes out. With a company firewall, I should be able to disable these
security features if I choose.

You can, and it's not related to firewalls one way or another (and
firewalls really aren't related to application security, even if it was
somehow tied in. About all you could do would be block outbound port 25,
but Outlook uses ExMAPI via RPC, and blocking the RPC ports would have a
lot more nasty side-effects).

Why was it no help? It lists all the known solutions. The right solution depends on the scenario, the skills of the programmer, their risk aversion, and their willingness to use third-party solutions. We don't know anything about your views on those issues.

Try Advanced Security v1.2 for Outlook. This will allow automatic
emails without the prompt opening for each email. It works great. It is
produced by MAPILAB and it is freeware.

Goodluck
