    Email Notification Dialog Box Prior to submitting Form

    Hi,

    I asked this question in the past but still strugging so I thought to ask again and see if I can gain some more insight.

    My products are InfoPath 2003, Sharepoint 2003, and Outlook 2003.

    My form submits to a sharepoint library and also routes via Outlook to various recipients.  Prior to the email submit (data connection) to work, the end user who just filled out the form and hit submit gets a dialog box detailing the that an email will go out from his/her inbox.  The end user has to click on send for the form to submit.  The end user also has the ability to click cancel.  Based on the way my form is designed, I start to run into issues if the end user hits cancel by mistake or any other reason.

    Is this an InfoPath standard or just something that is Exchange related and could be fixed with an Outlook setting or Exchange server setting?

    Basically, I don't want that dialog box to pop up.  I just want the end user to hit submit and it goes to my sharepoint library and to the email recipients without that pop up box appearing.  Any thoughts would be appreciated......

    Thanks

    Lou

    Hi Lou.

    This can be accomplished with server side email, but it takes some architectural changes.

    Our web service package includes a SMTP server for email but this has to be triggered via the webservice.

    I could show you how it works if you want to email me.

    Thanks

    It is not an Exchange issue.

    With our SQL integration this is another by product.

    Thanks.  What is your email address.  I need to better understand and maybe we further discuss through email.

    Clay,

    I'm in the process of further investigating this with our internal engineers.  I will keep you updated on the outcome.
