Hi Guys,

I am attempting to create an internal email template within outlook 2002 for
my department at work. The hope is that I can create an email template, which
will not send if there is a non-company email address in the 'to:' field.

For example if the company email ended: ’ - I would like
this template to only accept email addresses ending in '
within the 'to:' field.
Does anybody have any ideas how to do this? Can this be done by inputting
validation code for the 'to:' field?

If not does anybody have any interesting ideas for creating a template that
is obviously for internal use one, for example just as a high priority
message contains the text 'this message was sent with high importance?' -
could such a system be adjusted to say 'this message is intended for internal
use only'?

I have experimented, producing a privacy scroll bar that inserted text into
the subject line, and prints off a privacy status, though it did not meet my
foolishly high expectations.

Many Thanks

Tom Mc

This would require VBScript code behind the form in the Item_Send event handler, to iterate the Item.Recipients collection and check each Recipient.Address value.

Outlook does support a rich classification scheme, but it takes much more than simple custom form design to implement it.
