|
|
Hi all,
I need do write a rules wizard for Outlook Express / Outlook 2000 / Outlook
XP. The goal is let the user specify an address to wich all messages
received will be forwardered to.
Creating this for Outlook Express was as easy than using TRegistry (although
some antivirus will complain; but I can ask the user to disable the
antivirus) but I don't have a clue on how to do this with Outlook.
I thought there would be a COM interface to deal with message rules but this
doesn't seem to be true.
Can someone give a tip on how to do this?

You can modify server side rules (Exchange) using either Extended MAPI or
the rule.dll component from MSDN. In case of standalone Outlook (PST, no
Exchange) the rules cannot be modified.
