How to develop a custom action which can used in Rules Wizard?

L

Liu Peng

I need a custom action which will be used in Rules Wizard "Perform a custom
action", this custom action will send email's attachments to some other
system.

Is it possible to use VSTO to create this custom actions? If so please
provide some reference resource.

thanks.

No. Custom actions are .dlls created with Extended MAPI and either C++ or
Delphi.

With VSTO, however, you should create an Outlook add-in to accomplish your
goal without involving the Rules Wizard.

Thanks for you reply, I will try to develop a VSTO add-in which to use the
Application.NewMailEx Event.
