How to avoid Outlook security warnings when using own Com Addin?

[MatrimCauthon]

Hello,

I've developed a ComAddin using Visual Basic 6.0.
Upon certain tasks done by the addin, eg accessing the body of an
email, Outlook prompts a security warning with the option of allow the
programm to access it for up to 10 minutes.
I really puzzled because Outlook tells me a programm wants to access
email addresses stored in outlook but I only access the objMsg.body
...

(Of course this warning prompts when im accessing the objMsg.sender
also...)

How can I make outlook doesn't prompt a warning when my addin runs even
when I'm installing it on other machines?

Thank you in advance,

Mat.

Hi
I think so:
1. Test Outlook parameters. Find what you must switch off.
2. Find it in the register.
3. Create installation that set it in the register into righ
condition.

Body is a source of email addresses, hence protected. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/sec.htm for your options as a developer.

Body can hold email addresses, that and HTMLBody are now restricted.

If you are using Exchange server you can make a trusted COM addin. All
Outlook objects must be derived from the Application object passed to you in
the On_Connection event, CDO code is never trusted BTW. Once you have that
done your admins would trust the COM addin and create a hash for it. All
that is detailed at http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/esecup/admin.htm

If you are not using Exchange the only options are to write your addin using
Extended MAPI (C++ or Delphi only) or using the Redemption library
(www.dimastr.com/redemption).
