How can I detect the folder a mailitem is stored in
I need to find out, where a mailitem is stored, that is the folder name
within Outlook. I need that information because I want users to execute an action only on items from the inbox. Therefore I want to check someting like: if mailitem.folder is Inbox do... else... Currently, my code is generating an additional button in each opened mail (an email that is opened with a doubleclick from within the Inbox). Clicking this button opens a dialog and runs additional code... Now I want to avoid this button to show up when an email is opened from lets say a subfolder of the Inbox. Hope you can give me hints...

How can I detect the folder a mailitem is stored in
MailItem.Parent property will return the parent folder (MAPIFolder).
Do not hardcode the "Inbox" name, or your code will fail in locales other than English.

Thanx a lot!
Sometimes, you do not even find the easiest solutions... "Dmitry Streblechenko" wrote: MailItem.Parent property will return the parent folder (MAPIFolder).
