Disable email submit confirmation

Is there a way to disable email submit confirmation dialog box in Infopath so
that when I send multiple emails with different subject, body, and recipients
from one form it won't ask for a confirmation to send?

Hi

I believe the box you see is actually a safety measure from Outlook which
asks you as to whether you want an outside program to use Outlook to send
this message. I am guessing you can disable it in Outlook methinks.

I am not aware of whether or not Outlook would have a feature to disable this. I'm guessing it won't.

Adam is right that this is a security feature. Without it, an errant form could send spam.

Thanks all for your response. What I'm working on is a request form that gets
routed via email to different approvers. When it is approved by the first
approver I want to send 2 emails, first one to the second approver with the
form attached, the second email is just a notification to the requestor
without the form attachment.

I am using 2 data adapters to accomplish this, but this means that my form
will ask the user to confirm sending the information twice. Is there a better
way of doing this?

A much cleaner way to achieve what you want to to submit the data to a web
service which will not pop up any boxes at all, and get the web service to
forward on the form and submit the receipt. It should give you a better
result.
