I know that you are a fellow programmer, but just for kicks I thought I would mention the Sent Items Organizer, an Outlook add-in that automatically files your emails as they are sent. See http://www.SperrySoftware.com/Outlook/Sent-Items-Organizer.asp.

Thanks!

Find 35 Outlook add-ins that can make a difference!

Correct, COM add-ins are the only type of addin you can have for outlook (I can only assume for security reasons). Dennis has posted a couple examples here, though I don’t have the links readily available, but if you’re creating them from VB6 (easy), the following links should help:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dno2kta/html/mso2kaddin.asp (from MSDN – explains it a bit more in-depth, though it was written for office 2k)
Last year I made a couple (one to make outlook blink the scroll lock light when mail was received, the other was work related but did a lot more outlook-centric code. I’d be happy to send you the source of either if you’re interested.

Also, though it probably would never make a difference for you, rather than use GetNamespace(“MAPI”), you can just use Session:

As Session just returns the current namespace object.
