Deployment

To deploy your software that uses Outlook Security Manager you should include the secman.dll file in your setup package and register it on an end-user computer as a COM object. To register it you can use the regsvr32 utility or special options of your installer (vsdrfCOMSelfReg for example). In addition, your setup package must include SecurityManager.dll (SecurityManager.2005.dll) that must be located in the application install folder.

Please note, you should place secman.dll as a shared DLL into the shared folder of Windows, Common Files \ Outlook Security Manager. Please do not unregister secman.dll if it had existed before you installed your product. The complete information about deploying shared files you can find on the MSDN website: Windows 2000 Application Specifications: Component Sharing

You can find the redistributable version of secman.dll in the Redistributable subfolder of Outlook Security Manager folder.

Attention!

You should understand that Outlook Security Manager can potentially open a door for unsafe content. To avoid this you must enable Outlook security within a finalization code after each elementary call of the protected objects as we showed in the examples of how to disable warnings like: "a program is trying to access email addresses" and "a program is trying to automatically send email". See also a flash video showing how to disable a message like: "A program is trying to access your Address Book or Contacts".
