The icon that you see or that recipients see? If the latter, internal recipients connecting to the same Exchange Server or external or non-Exchange recipients?

Default Create custom form in Outlook 2007

The icon that I see.
I guess I have to create Form in Personal Forms Library. I tried
creating Form using the folowing code:

var
FormMgr: IMAPIFormMgr;
PersonalFormsLibrary : IMAPIFormContainer;

FormMgr.OpenFormContainer(HFRMREG_PERSONAL, nil,
PersonalFormsLibrary));
PersonalFormsLibrary.InstallForm(0, MAPI_DIALOG, CfgPathName));

where CfgPathName - path to the form's configuration file.

When I selected this form in Outlook when tring to create a message, I
got a Outlook warning that it was unable to display this form.

Did you actually create the form first in Outlook and save it as a .cfg file?

In Outlook 2007, a simpler solution for showing a specific icon is to use a replaceall form region manifest, as discussed at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/Sho...iteID=1&mode=1 -- Raul's #1 manifest.

Default Create custom form in Outlook 2007

Thank you for your answer. BTW, I can't use Outlook 2007 specific form
region feature because I mean to install the add-in for Outlook 2003
and 2007.

I created .cfg file manually referring MSDN article. Is there another
"right" way to create and install custom form ?

Actually I have several e-mail addresses and certain icon for each of
them. My addin should to create custom form (if not exists) with
specific icon and then set message class to new one for each arrived
mail with specific e-mail address.
