Set the format of the merge output to HTML, not plain text or attachment.

I want to use Email Merge, but for every intended recipient on the list, I
get the following message, with its annoying and time-consuming message: "A
program is trying to send mail using Item.Send Do you want to allow this?"

Help me stop the slow-down!
Thanks,
