objective of
verifying that an item in a folder has been read. Nothing about a
custom
message form would prevent you from using a DL to send it to multiple
public
folders.

Hi Sue, yes I did try what you suggested, but would it not be very
slow
and tedious method for the operator responsible for posting the email
to
30 public folders if he has to access a custom form 30 times that is
for
every public folder, instead of being able to use a distribution
group
that would contain the 30 public folders and send one email to all
30
public folders...?

With the custom form I can post into one public folder at a time and
everyting works fine when I do so...but it would take to long time to
do
so 30 times for each public folder .....or am I missing something
from
the picture ?

Hi Sue, if i post to the Public Folder with the custom form, and then
open the item I posted then the event Sub item_open() triggers.
On ther other hand if I use a DL to send an email to
the same Public Folder with the custom form, and then open the item I
emailed then the event Sub item_open() does unfortunately not trigger.

That is the heart of the matter

Cheers Gudmundur
