Hi

I am currently working on an Outlook addin devloped using C# and VSTO
2005. In the MailItem_ItemSend - all my custom logic takes place.

So the scenario i have is once i get the mailitem here - i do some
processing here (like based on the number of recicps) - I create copy
of orig emails (each having one recip) and then those emails actually
go out. The original email which the sender had clicked to send
does(should) not go out.

The problem(s) I am facing is a

1. How do I move the original email to Sent Items folder of the Sender
(so that the sender can refer the email again in its entirity for
future purposes)

2. I dont want the copies of email generated programatically to be
seen in Sent Items folder of the sender. How do i stop that from
happening.

Please - any help/direcction in this regard would really be helpful.

Thanks

After cancelling the send you would have to save the item to make sure it
has an EntryID, then close the item after storing the EntryID and get the
item as a new item using NameSpace.GetItemFromID(), then use the Move method
to move it to Sent Items. Note that the item will not show up as sent, it
will be an unsent message.

Set the DeleteAfterSubmit property on each of the items that you don't want
put in Sent Items.

Thanks a lot Ken for the quick response.

Regarding the first part - is all this possible through Outlook Object
Model (not want to use Redemption).

Also will look into code samples doing the apporach you have
mentioned. Is doing this normal - meaning no side issues related to
doing this manually (setting EntryID etc).

Just wanted to see ur thoughts on that

Thanks once agian

You can use the Outlook object model for that. I have no idea what you mean
about setting the EntryID, Outlook creates the EntryID when you save the
item. Once it's saved and released you can re-open it and move it anywhere
you like.

Thanks for the response. I now understand the Entry ID part but have
some issues with the real code implementation:

1. I looked for cancelling the Send event on the original email. Cant
seem to find any code. Can you please point this to me. I am really
having a hard time finding this.

Also I see this - myItem.SavveSentMessageFolder -- which i believe i
can use to save the email directly into the sent message folder. This
may avoid the MyItem.Save and then moving?

What do you suggest.

Thanks

There are 2 possibilities for canceling a send. The first event is
item.Send, which fires initially when the user clicks send. That event is on
the MailItem and fires only in that item. The second event is the
Application.ItemSend event, which is an application-wide event.

In either event all you do is set Cancel = true to cancel the send
operation.

SaveSentMessageFolder takes a MAPIFolder as an argument and provides a way
of setting that one specific item to save in your folder of choice. The
property is only used after the after is sent out, so it's of no use when
cancelling a send. You could set that property to Drafts, My Old Outgoing
Mail, Sent Items, or wherever else you want.

DeleteAfterSubmit is a Boolean property that when set will delete the sent
item after it's sent out and leave no copies behind.

I looked into this more all of last night - but cant seem to find
(sorry for my ignorance) - how to stop/cancel the send event of an
email and then close it properly. Even if it stays in inblx it is fine
because using the .Move method is very easy or as I mentioned
myItem.SavveSentMessageFolder possibly.

But please Ken - can you please point me how to do that

Thanks
