Send to Email

Selecting the |Send to Email| option will send the forms to your default email client.  To use this feature you must have Microsoft Outlook 2000 or above properly configured on your system.

Microsoft has implemented security protocols in Outlook 2000 and above in an effort to prevent virus infiltration into Microsoft Outlook.  These security protocols cannot be disabled in the client version of Microsoft Outlook. There are currently third party utilities available that will suppress these security messages when the application is a known or trusted source, such as when merging data to your word processor with Office Accelerator.  A list of some of these utilities are provided below.

Third Party Outlook Utilities:

• Context Magic - Click Yes - http://www.contextmagic.com/express-clickyes/
  
• MAPI Lab - Advanced Security for Outlook - http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/security/
