COM add-in can't update sent message MAPI properties in Outlook XP...
Hello,
I've written a COM add-in in VB .NETwhich adds tracking info (message delivered/read times) from external messages to the appropriate sent message. The add-in works fine in Outlook 2003. However, in Outlook XP/2002, it only works if the sent message has not been opened by the sender in Outlook until after the add-in has updated the tracking info. It's as if the sent message becomes read-only once the sender opens it from their Sent Items folder. Anyone seen similar behaviour before please? The setup is Outlook XP/2002 or Outlook 2003 against an Exchange 2003 server (MAPI profile, online mode). I'm using Redemption RDO but I don't think it's related. I'm adding the Tracking tab to the sent message, then updating the PR_RECIPIENT_TRACKSTATUS_TIME_READ, PR_RECIPIENT_TRACKSTATUS_READ, TrackingStatus and TrackingStatusTime MAPI properties, as well as changing the envelope icon. Thanks, - Alan.

Just an update. The message properties are being updated after all...
but I need to restart Outlook XP/2002 to make them visible. Anyone got an idea why please? The changes are visible immediately in Outlook 2003...
