Re: E-mail restriction Application
Best method i can think of is making your own Email server application (Almost like a Http proxy) you'll need to use the standard SMTP Protocol as well as the Standard POP3 Protocol.
With this base you can now easilly implement all and more of your requirments..

Re: E-mail restriction Application
As Gremmy says, you should create your own email server (sound like a lot of fun - and I am sure not the answer you hoped for)
The main problem is that you cannot control Microsoft Email Servers programatically as you will continually get a popup from the Email System telling you that someone is trying to control the system programatically !!!!
This problem stems from the days of the "Love" virus which hijacked peoples email systems and used them to send out millions of emails.
So if you are game to make your own Email Server, have a google search for "vbSendmail" which will probably solve 99% of what you will need. This is a SMTP Email System with full source code
Good Luck

You would not believe him but its true, THis is not the way out. This popups are there and trying to stop them will maybe even create more of them which tells you that someone programmwise trys to manipulate the server. But he has given you a really good adress so use it !

Last time I got around this problem, I used Outlook 2000 (which did not have the popups)
However, there is some fancy software which clicks the OK button automatically (not sure of the viability of it)

Express ClickYes 1.0.5 (updated on July 4, 2003)
What is Express ClickYes
Express ClickYes is a tiny program that sits in the taskbar and clicks the Yes button on behalf of you, when Outlook's Security Guard opens prompt dialog saying that a program is trying to send an email with Outlook or access its address book. You can suspend/resume it by double-clicking its taskbar icon. Developers can automate its behavior by sending special messages.
Download your FREE copy of Express ClickYes (93 Kb)
ClickYes works with:
Outlook 2000 SP1+SR1
Outlook 2000 SP2
Outlook 2002
Outlook 2003 Beta 2
Though ClickYes is completely free of charge, you can give us a favor looking at Express Mail@Mate, our email notification tool. Click here to find out more...
ClickYes doesn't work with Outlook Express. There is an appropriate option in the Outlook's Express settings. To turn the prompts off, click Options on the menu, switch to the Security tab, and clear the Warn me when other applications try to send mail as me checkbox. For additional information, look at the screenshot below.
How to Install and Launch
Download the installation package, run ClickYesSetup.exe and follow the instructions.
After this just double-click the ClickYes shortcut icon on your Desktop to launch the program.
How to Use Express ClickYes
Being launched Express ClickYes sits in the taskbar and does what it should.
To resume/suspend program execution double-click its taskbar tray icon.
Right-click its tray icon, to get the popup menu, and select some additional options.
To exit ClickYes, right-click its icon and select Exit in the popup menu.
Known Limitations
ClickYes stops processing commands while the Windows NT/2000/XP
workstation is locked.
How to Uninstall
To uninstall Express ClickYes, double-click the Add/Remove Programs icon in the Windows Control Panel.
Select Express ClickYes in the list of installed programs and click the Add/Remove button. Follow the instructions.

Third-party Developers
We are glad to announce that Express ClickYes can be managed from third-parties' software now. Please take a look at code samples below how to do so using C/C++, Borland Delphi, Microsoft Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro and even VB.NET.
C/C++ Sample
void SomeProc() {
HWND wnd;
UINT uClickYes;
// Register a message to send
uClickYes=RegisterWindowMessage("CLICKYES_SUSPEND_RESUME");
// Find ClickYes Window by classname
wnd=FindWindow("EXCLICKYES_WND", NULL);
// Send the message to Resume ClickYes
SendMessage(wnd, uClickYes, 1, 0);
// ...
// Do some Actions
// ...
// Send the message to Suspend ClickYes
SendMessage(wnd, uClickYes, 0, 0);
}
Delphi Sample
procedure SomeProc;
var
wnd: HWND;
uClickYes: UINT;
begin
// Register a message to send
uClickYes:=RegisterWindowMessage('CLICKYES_SUSPEND_RESUME');
// Find ClickYes Window by classname
wnd:=FindWindow('EXCLICKYES_WND',nil);
// Send the message to Resume ClickYes
SendMessage(wnd, uClickYes, 1, 0);
// ...
// Do some Actions
// ...
// Send the message to Suspend ClickYes
SendMessage(wnd, uClickYes, 0, 0);
end;
