As somebody else suggested, all you need is a good backup solution aunning

I would like to write an add-in forOutlook2003 in vb.net 2005.

1.) Is this possible?

2.) Here's what I'd like to do. I'd like to storeoutlookemail messages
as .msgfiles in a folder in the users profile or mydocs. I'd like for
that folder to appear in the folder list on the right, and be able to
create folders in that, that would make file system folders. I'd like any
email drug into those folders to be moved to the file system as an .msg
file. I'd like those files to display in theoutlookpane when clicked
on, just like the MAPI folders do. I'd like to be able to search them.

Is this possible? I have done com add-in's before, in visual basic 6, and
have worked with Word and Excel object models some. Can anyone tell me
what would be involved, and a basic strategy of going about this, if it
can be done?

By all means if there is a cheap or free add in that already does this,
please let me know as well. I'd still like an idea as to how to do it.

Thanks,

Hi Shane, In case you still are looking for a cheap add in for Outlook
to archive email to msg files,
maybe MailToFile (www.mailtofile.com) is a solution for you.
Have a nice day!
