Nektra's system takes a little getting used to, but its the best thing
out there for hooking into OE. You won't get OE to act like Outlook
proper, but you can hook just about everything with it.

Your other options like Michael said are using your own DLL for
function hooking which I don't recommend since the Nektra folks have
already done that exact thing, OR finding documentation for hooking
into the encryption system which has some sort of interface for hooking
some things related to sending and viewing messages. The PGP people
use it for some of their stuff.

the OE case is more interesting to me - so you are saying there is no
equivalent plugin mechanism for this thing? Do you have any information at
all as to how I might get OE to load some sort of custom DLL so that I can
add to the toolbar, intercept buttons on the toolbar and grab the message
text.. there must be *some* way to get OE to load a dll - i see
aftermarket
products adding toolbars and so on.. are they hacking their way into the
app
by subclassing the existing windows or something like that?
