If you are sending an email from Outlook and using Exchange Server, the
email is "sent" as soon as it is handed off to Exchange.
If you are using Outlook directly, the only thing that would keep it from
being "sent" AFAIK, is if Outlook is directed to poll an unknown SMTP
server, because even if you send an email to an invalid address, it will
still hand it off to the SMTP server, which will generate a failure message
upon deduction of the improper address.
So, is it a specific address that this happened? Intermittent? After the
computer chokes on the offending email address, have you tried to email to
the same address using Outlook directly?
That would be a useful clue.
The only thing that would be a potential workaround would be the addition of
a timeOut value added to the RBL to cease waiting for a send after a
specified time period.

Good Morning
I have searched for the setting in outlook and the list archive files and
have not come up with a solution. The problem with emailing from rbase does
seem to be an ‘outlook’ problem. It seems the email must be sent before
outlook will close. As long as I send the email I can resume my rbase
session , but if I want to exit the email without sending it outlook will
close, but the computer has to be reset.
Is there someone (named Razzak) out there that might have a solution?

Mike,
This is not something that is controlled in RBase, it's a setting in
Outlook. It's been a while since I had to do it, and I don't use Outlook
now, so I can't point you to the exact location of the setting - but it's
there. Actually, this has been brought up here before - so maybe a search
of the archived messages will help if you can't see where to change the
setting.

Good morning once again

I did as you suggested and did not set the allowed time. I still get the
same results. It only happens when the email is not sent!

Good Morning
I am using the eep that is found in the 2009 sat that creates a pdf doc and
sets parameters for the plugin MAPIMail3.RBL to create an email to be sent.
Before the email appears I get a message that asks for permission to access
the outlook address book for ‘n’ minutes or deny access. I have set the
permission for 1 minute.
When the email appears, if it is not sent, my computer hangs up as if it is
waiting for it to be sent and has to be rebooted.
Should there be a line in the eep that would cancel or release the rbl?
Mike
