I wrote an outlook 2007 add-in that brought up a WPF window w/ fields to fill
out, and when you clicked the create e-mail button, it created an e-mail
based on the contents of the form. The problem lies in that it is bringing up
almost a "generic" e-mail -- it doesn't have my signature on it, if Microsoft
CRM is loaded it won't have the 'track in crm' listed -- it's almost as if it
doesn't know it's me sending it, but when i send the e-mail, it always sends
from my default account (which is good). Any help??

Outlook.Application App1 = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application();

Outlook.MailItem mail1 = (Outlook.MailItem)
App1.CreateItem(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.O lItemType.olMailItem);

If this is in an Outlook addin use the Outlook.Application object passed to
you, don't use New to create a new instance of the application.

CRM no one here will be able to help with, I doubt there's much if any
expertise on that here.

Outlook.Application App1 = new
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application();

Outlook.MailItem mail1 = (Outlook.MailItem)
App1.CreateItem(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.O lItemType.olMailItem);

If you want the signature to display, create the message, return its
Inspector with GetInspector -- that should cause the signature to be inserted
-- and then concatenate or insert your new content into the existing message
content.
