How to suppress the Outlook 2003 security prompts from VB2005. When I tried
to look at the body of a message or any other part of an outlook mailItem --
I get these annoying security prompts. I have to loop through several emails
a day.

Is there some code for suppressing this? I saw some articles about a
product called Outlook Redemption which supposed suppresses these messages.
I have not tried it. Anyone know how to use it?

Thanks,
Rich

Is this for a client tool... or is it more of an automated process? Is your
mail stored on an exchange server or on a POP server?

Can you process the mail directly on the server instead of through the
client?

You should be able to talk to Exchange directly with CDO rather than going
through Outlook.

For POP3, IMAP there are 3rd party components which will allow you to
connect to those types of servers.
 
We have an Exchange server at my place, and I already have an automated app
for sending out emails to clients (client updates ...) using smtp. This
works fine.

I also wrote a quicky program to read emails in my own inbox (Outhook)--
searching for specific text in the body of emails. The goal was to loop
through my inbox and read the body of unread emails. If certain text was
found in the body, then I isolate that/those emails. But the program stops
when I hit one of these security prompts.

Is there a way to get around this security prompt?

That's the way outlook works to prevent viruses from accessing Outlook.

I did see a third party component which supposedly allows you to disable
the prompt (Outlook Security Manager) but I'm not sure how legit it is.

So basically no... if you want to do automated processsing you should go
through CDO not outlook.
 
Thanks. I did read some articles about Outlook Redemption. It sounds like
that is the way to go.

Question: My outlook app is only for my personal use, and I won't be
distributing this particular app. Essentially, I will be using it for
development purposes -- to loop through a list of unread email bodies. I
read that for development purposes you can use Redemption for free. Does
this mean that if I download and install Redemption it will only work in
Debug mode?
 
Hi,
No it will work when compliled, but I beleive it sometimes pops up a nag
screen to purchase.
