Hello,
I currently have a macro that I want to run whenever I recieve a new mail
message. Currently it runs under the Application_NewMail. This works when
outlook is on and logged in but how can I have it run on incoming emails when
I am logged off. Any help is appreciated. I have look into adding it in a
rule but a rule with a script wont work unless logged on.

This can never work, as your Outlook will only receive email when it is
running. Even if you use Exchange the emails are on the server and Outlook
doesn't know about them until it's started.
