Default Prompt for New contact

If all you want is a prompt, you don't need any code. Just use a rule that has no conditions, a notify me action, and an exception for items in the address book.

A couple days ago an employee asked if there was a way to get Outlook to
prompt you when you recieve an e-mail from someone who is not in your contact
list.

We downloaded an add-on that adds contacts from all messages sent and
recieved, but it hasn't been very helpfull.

My Goal for this script:
1. retrieve addresses from emails
2. Check for the address in the contacts list
3. run a form that will prompt "would you like to add as contact"
4. when you click yes, opens the standard "add contact" form with the email
already filled out (this one is optional)

I already have the Prompt form created and have named it addprompt. The only
script I have right now is the script for the "no" button.

any advice on how to achieve my goal would be greatly apreciated
