Outlook and email
Not sure what has changed. I have a routine that emails several files to
clients. It runs through Outlook and then sends. Use to run great,now outlook
gives me "Program is trying to access e-mail addresses. Allow access for
" and several options. When I select the option to allow I get another message
"A program is trying to send email on your behalf. This is a virus like activity
and you should select no" Then I have to wait several seconds before yes
can be clicked. I can live with the first message but not the second. I have
tried changing security settings but it does not help. This does not occur
on every machine. It seems windows 2000 or higher. Does not happen on win98
machine. Any ideas?

You've installed Outlook XP on the W2K and higher machines. Microsoft added
this "feature" in order to protect your machine. I think this can be dealt
with a program called "Outlook Redemption". You should be able to find it
on the web.

Actually, it's Office 2000 _SP2_ or later.
It's lovingly referred to as the "Draconian Security Patch from ****". <g>

Hello, Jarrett!
You wrote on 19 Jun 2003 07:23:56 -0700:
The Redemption tool Fred mentioned can be found here:
http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/
Redemption allows you to send email and access all the other things you
could before all the security patches where applied to Outlook 2000 SP2 and
XP. Here's some VFP sample code:
<vfp_code>
*-- Example VFP Code using Redemption DLL
LOCAL oRedem, oOutlook, oMail
oRedem = CREATEOBJECT("Redemption.SafeMailItem")
oOutlook = CREATEOBJECT("Outlook.Application")
oMail = oOutlook.CreateItem(0)
*-- This needs to be done before trying to access the Redempion methods
*-- and Properties.
WITH oRedem
.Item = oMail
.Receipients.Add("user@domain.com")
.Subject = "Test Email"
.Body = "This email goes past the Security in Outlook XP"
.Send
ENDWITH
oMail = .NULL.
oOutlook = .NULL.
oRedem = .NULL.
</vfp_code>
I remember a function completely written in VFP that does (almost ?) the
same as the Redemption dll. If I am not mistaken, it was posted to one of
the VFP newsgroups on the Microsoft server. You may want to search
groups.google.com.

Guess that means our Outlook on the servers at work don't have SP2. Lots of
automated emails get sent from them.

# 5 Re: Outlook and email
Got the email to work with redemption. Get error "Program has generated
errors and will be closed" when the exe is unloaded. I assume redemption
is staying open and windows is not able to close it. This is definetly not
a foxpro error. I have tried to release and close the object but does not
help. I am unable to find any usefull documentation on the redemption website.
Many thanks to the responses already posted.

Our IT people keep TRYING to install SP2 on my notebook and I keep yelling
at them. <g>
I've got some personal utilities that I don't feel like spending time on.
