Yes, it's to prevent viruses and other malware from sending email without
your knowledge.
According to this page:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-outlook/how-to-disable-the-setting-in-outlook-2010-to-stop/d3bd72e5-fa4b-e011-8dfc-68b599b31bf5?auth=1
you can turn off that warning entirely:

Of course, that opens it up to any program sending email through Outlook.
It might not be possible to set things up to allow a specific program through.
