I think there is no link between two softwares. You need to write separate codes or try some another way..

Hi, Above code will work correctly if Outlook 2007 is installed, but outlook express 6 is there then it will not work. It is not guaranteed that all the clients will be having outlook 2007. What is the solution for this?

Hi Developer, Why don't update with your correct name, no hiding here Outlook password prompting depends on your profile account settings only. You need to configure to prompt password. Open outlook --> Tools --> Account Settings --> Select Email Account --> Click on Change --> More Settings --> Security Tab --> enable check box -> Always prompt for login credentials Now run our code.. OutlookApp._Application olApp = new OutlookApp.ApplicationClass(); OutlookApp._NameSpace olNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI"); olNS.Logon(Missing.Value, Missing.Value, false, false);

Hi Hirendra Sisodiya, Thanks for your code but it is not satisfying my requirement 100%. This will work correctly when in my outlook account if i have mentioned password. If password is not set in outlook, then it is asking for password but on clicking Cancel that mail message will be saved in Outbox. So as soon as i open outlook that message will be sent. This i do not want to happen. My requirement is if password is not set in outlook, then it should prompt for password, On giving correct password that message should be sent. If Cancel is clicked then that message should not be saved in outbox.
