Need help with OutlookApp.OnItemSend

Hi All,

I used the OnItemSent event in OutlookApp like the example,

http://www.add-in-express.com/files/adxht-002-d5-7.zip

and that works fine.

Inside the event, I save the email to a temporary MSG file,

MI.SaveAs( TempFileName, olMsg);

and then I send the MSG file to an external system.

When the MSG file is then viewed in outlook, it displays a message,

"This message has not been sent"

which is correct because the email has not been sent. But the email will be sent later.

I am not sure what approach to take. I would like to archive the MSG file as if it has been sent.

I tried MI.Send inside the OnItemSend handler but that raises an access violation.

The Sent propery is readonly so I cannot change that before saving the MSG file.

Any other ideas on how I can "intercept" an outgoing email when the user presses the Send button (because I need to confirm with the user if this particular email is the be archived), and have the MSG file appear as "Sent".

Thanks for any help,

Best regards,

Michel

Hi Michel,

You can try to handle the OnItemAdd event of the Sent Items folder.
