Actually I'm writing a new Outlook-AddIn

Here I use the adxOutlookEvents.ItemSend Event.
While this event, i need to identify, if this email is a new email, replied or forwarded.

Is there any property at the mailitem, to determine this property ?

Thanks for your help


many greetings
Klaus

Hello Klaus,

There's no such property.

If you intercept the Reply, ReplyAll, and Forward commands, you'll be able to a)cancel them and b) to invoke the MailItem.Reply, ReplyAll, or Forward methods; the point is these methods return the item being opened. You can mark the new item with a custom property: 

string myProp = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/" + "{FFF40745-D92F-4C11-9E14-92701F001EB3}/MyProperty";
string myString = "my string";
Outlook.PropertyAccessor oPA = oMail.PropertyAccessor;
oPA.SetProperty(myProp, myString);
oMail.Save();


You'll need to check for this property in the ItemSend event.
