Dear all,

I'm looking for a way to catch Events on my Addin when user writes new email, reply or reply all to add a new email in CC automatically.

I followed Pieter's Blog (https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2011/09/06/outlook-item-events/) but my OUtlookItemEventsClass1.cs is never called.
I successfully retrieve new mailItem event (through adxOutlookAppEvents1_InspectorActivate) but from here I'm not able to know if this is a new mail written, a reply, reply all...

As Pieter's Blog is quite old (2011) may be there is a new way to catch events ?

Thanks for your help !
Franck.

PS: I'm using Visual Studio 2019 and C#

Hello Franck,

There's the ItemSend event; in Add-in Express it is mapped to the ADXOutlookAppEvents.ItemSend event. You use that event to modify an outgoing email or cancel the send. Is this what you are looking for?

Pieter described connecting to the events of a selected item. Is this the case? Also, I suggest that you check a sample project we describe at https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2020/07/01/sample-com-addin-projects-outlook-excel-powerpoint-word/.
