Outlook 2007 - Programmatic Access Security

[Eivind Antonsen]

Hello

I'm running Outlook 2007 in a Citrix PS 4 environment

One user who's responsebility is to send out more than 1500+ paychecks
every month via email has to manually click "Yes" on every single one.
"A program is trying to automatically send e-mail on your behalf."

I've tried to find the corresponding GPO settings to set the
programmatic acces security for this user to "Never warn me about
suspicious activity", but have been unable to find it.

I have tried the following:
I've set the "Outlook Security Policy" to Use Outlook Security Group Policy
I've set every option under Security form settings to "Automatically
Approve"

But that does not help.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong here.

Does anyone have a sollution to how to make this work ?

(I do not want to install a third party app - "ClickYes")

Thank You

Regards

It depends on how the paycheck application talks to Outlook. I would first
check with the vendor of that application. It's been about 7 years now since
that security feature has been introduced and properly programmed
applications do not raise such prompts anymore.

If you set everything to always approve you've completely compromised all
programmatic access security; not just for that single application. Surely
you do not want to do that?

Also, same as last post; have you verified that your GPO actually got
applied to the client?
