I hope you understood my question.
All the folders I am talking about have the the same
MAPIFolder.DefaultItemType wich is olMailItem!
= How can I differentiate folders that holds items and open them in an
explorer, and folders that do not show items(do not have item) and are
considered as colsed explorer such as the root folder "Mailbox toto" ??

Thank you

Hi,
In my code for the outlook addin I am trying to enable/disable
commandbarbuttons from the tool bar depending on the folder I am clicking
on.
When I open some "folders" (such as "MailBox MyName") the explorer is
temporarly closed so I can't check the explorer.Selection wich throws an
exception.
How can I recognize the type of folder so that I adapt my add-in
appearance.(I am using the event SwitchFolder)

Thank you for your help...
