I've been looking around at the samples but I can find out what I should do to stop a new adding a new item to a folder. Basically I want a read only folder. Is there an override for creating a new item where I can intercept the call and return a failure so that no item is created?

Hi Richard.

To prevent of saving a new item to a folder you can use the OutlookItemEventsClass class. This class is added by the 'Outlook Item Events Class' wizard in the 'Add New Item' dialog. Please use the 'ProcessWrite' event handler to disallow the writing process.
