Sue,

Thanks.
It would be great if you could help me with the further problems too.

1) Rather than waiting until MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event to fire, is
there a method to read the sent mail item immediately,
as our programs which communicate with Outlook will have to wait until the
mail is sent ?
ie.
If there is an problem with the internet that blocks mails being sent out.

2) Saving a copy from the Drafts folder, results in an editable msg file.
But from Sent items it's a frozen copy.
Can I create a frozen copy from the Drafts folder ?

1) Before you call Send, change the value of the BillingInformation property
to some string. When the MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event fires on the Sent
Items folder, check the value of BillingInformation to see if it contains
the marker you set. If it does, call SaveAs.

2) The best you can do in that case is save a copy of the unsent item.

Hi,

What I need is to save an email which is sent out from MSO as a file,
which
is a frozen copy of the mail sent.

1. To do the above I need to find out the mail from Sent Items for the
mail
which was sent out from Outbox.
What I know is the EntryId changes and there is no other property to
create
a link between these 2 mail items
ie.
After issuing loMailItem.Send(), how do I get hold of the mail from sent
items, to issue loMailItem.SaveAs() and create a frozen copy ?

2. I noticed that MS Outlook has a option 'Not to save a copy in Sent
Items', in this case how to I create a file with the frozen copy ?

Could someone please give some hints.
