Email Submit acceptance box

[Simon]

I have setup an Infopath form (In SP1) to email a user when they click
a submit button by using a data connection. This works fine, however
when they click the button they still have to confirm that they want
to send an email, what I would like is to surpress this message and
get the email to be sent straight away. Either that or be able to
change the introduction size and font to get the users attention to
get them to push send rather than the cancel button.

I hope this makes sense and thank you in advance.

As far as I am aware the user confirmation is unavoidable. This is a
security measure since, if no confirmation was required, a malicous
author of a form template could, in theory, send emails in the user's
name without the user's knowledge.

One approach to the issue is to include explanatory text, suitably
highlighted, near the submit button informing them that the data will
be submitted by email and that they will be asked to confirm that the
email be sent.
