Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean) Dim strMsg As String If Item.To = "everyone@example.com" Or Item.CC = "everyone@example.com" Or Item.BCC = "everyone@example.com" Then strMsg = "You're sending this email to EVERYONE!!!" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & _ "To: " & Item.To & vbCrLf & "Cc: " & Item.CC & vbCrLf & "Bcc: " & Item.BCC & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & _ "Are you sure you want to send this message?" If MsgBox(strMsg, vbYesNo + vbExclamation + vbDefaultButton2, "SEND CONFIRMATION") = vbNo Then Cancel = True End If End If End Sub
