Default How to find a mailitem



You can add a UserProperty to the item and search for that. Just ensure once
that the folder (probably the Sent Items folder) also has that UserProperty.

So perhaps I should rephrase my original question. I am capturing the
Item_Send event. In this event, I create a postitem in another folder in
which I add a userproperty that references the "to be sent" email. I need

to
be able to quickly find this sent item later. Unfortunately, the EntryID

is
not available at this time. What should I use to find the sent mailitem?
Any code examples?

I found the help page with shows "ConversationIndex" as a valid filter.

When
I use it though, I get the exception "The property "ConversationIndex"

in
the
condition is not valid." Any ideas why?

My code looks like this:

string idx = ".....";
IOUT.Application app = (IOUT.Application)oApp;
IOUT.MAPIFolder f =
app.Session.GetDefaultFolder(IOUT.OlDefaultFolders .olFolderInbox);
string filter = string.Format("[ConversationIndex] =

'{0}'",
idx);
object o = f.Items.Restrict(filter);

The VBA help provides you with a sample. The easiest way is to select

the
Find function in the object browser (f2) and then click f1.

Given a conversationindex and conversationtopic, how do I find a

mailitem?
I
have looked at Session.GetDefaultFolder(...).Items.Find but I do not

see
any
examples of how to construct the search string with these parameters.
