Outgoing rule on BCC
I'm trying to set up a rule to move all messages that I send which have
specific names in the BCC field. This is an outbound mail rule (i.e. "Check messages after sending" in the new rules creation wizzard), so I can see who I'm sending to in each of the fields (To, CC, and BCC). The rules wizzard allows for watching rules sent through a specific account, but I cannot see how to filter the BCC field. Any help would be appreciated. If this is not possible through the wizzard, I am willing to program this with VBA; however, any pointers to which objects in the Outlook DOM would be greatly appreciated! (PS. I'll post all code I develop for this back here and/or on microsoft.public.outlook.vba) Kind regards, Kevin |
Outgoing rule on BCC
You would have to code this in VBA. Use the Application_ItemSend event, which passes the outgoing item as a parameter. The Recipients collection is exactly what the name implies. Check each Recipient.Type property to learn which is a Bcc. Or use the MailItem.Bcc property.
Also note that you can't move an item as it's being sent. You can, however, change the SaveSentMessageFolder property to point to a specific folder in the user's default store. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx wrote in message ups.com...

Outgoing rule on BCC
Thank you very much. This is what I've come up with and it seems to
work pretty well. If you create a folder "FolderXYZ" or replace the text with your own folder name, and replace "Doe, John" with how your name appears when typed into a recipient field, this should work. Enjoy, Kevin =============== Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean) Dim objMailItem As MailItem Dim objInbox As Outlook.MAPIFolder Dim objFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder Set objInbox = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox ) Set objFolder = objInbox.Folders("FolderXYZ") Set objMailItem = Item If objMailItem.BCC = "Doe, John" Then Set objMailItem.SaveSentMessageFolder = objFolder End If Set objMailItem = Nothing Set objInbox = Nothing Set objFolder = Nothing End Sub ================= On Nov 27, 10:19 am, "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: You would have to code this in VBA.
