js1537,

If you already have the email code created, you can add this simple portion to it, to make the user enter a password. If the password does not match, it continues to prompt the user until correct. Change "Password" to your preference.

While passCode <> "[B][I][U]Password[/U][/I][/B]"
    
    passCode = InputBox("Enter password:      (If unknown, leave blank and click Cancel)", "Email Security")
    
    If passCode = "" Then
        Exit Sub
    End If
Wend

Let me know if this is something you were looking for.

Hi,
Put this code into ThisOutlookSession module^

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)
  Const PWD = "1234"  ' <-- Correct password
  Dim s As String
  s = InputBox("To send email type the password, please", "Email guard")
  If s <> PWD Then
    Cancel = True
    If s <> "" Then MsgBox "Wrong password!", vbExclamation, "Email guard"
  End If
End Sub

  ' Variables
  Dim s As String, sSubj As String, sBody As String, w
 
  ' Exit if it's not email
  If TypeName(Item) <> "MailItem" Then Exit Sub
 
  ' Don't send if forbidden word is in the Subject or Body
  sSubj = Item.Subject
  sBody = Item.BODY
  For Each w In Split(cWords, ",")
    s = Trim(w)
    If InStr(1, sSubj, s, vbTextCompare) > 0 Then s = "Subject": Exit For
    If InStr(1, sBody, s, vbTextCompare) > 0 Then s = "Body": Exit For
