Rule to process messages
I have been tasked with writing a program that will create a rule on user
mailboxes. Our spam filtering solution adds the phrase "Potential SPAM:" to the subject line of all suspect emails. The rule is supposed to move any messages with that in the subject line to the Junk Mail folder. I've got VS.Net 2005, I'm hoping there's a relatively simple solution. Any pointers? The clients are Outlook 2003 SP2+, and Exchange is v2003. |
Rule to process messages
No, there is no simple solution for Outlook 2003. Outlook 2007 is the first version with anything near full support for creating rules programmatically. To do it in Outlook 2003 would require CDO 1.21, which is not officially supported in .NET languages, and a separate rule.dll file that would have to be installed on each machine.
An alternative you might want to consider is an Exchange event sink on each mailbox -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "nowandever29" wrote in message ...
