VBA Outlook 2003 - Customized rules

[thomas]

Hello,

In my company the number of rules in outlook 2003 is limited nsince they
changed the setup to have imap. I can make as many rules as i want but only
about 50 will be activated.

Is there a way with VBA to have my own rules, for incoming as well as for
outcoming mails?

Thanks

You can handle incoming e-mails in the ItemAdd event of the inbox, and
outgoing ones in the ItemSent event of the Application object.

As you are probably connected to a mail server, the ItemAdd event fires only
if Outlook is running. If it's not, and your mail server receives the
e-mail, you won't get the event if you later turn on Outlook. For that case
you could also use the Application_Startup event and see if there's any item
in the inbox that you haven't yet handled.
