I want to create a rule or write a macro in Outlook that allows me to choose
if I want to print the email after it has been sent.

Ideally, after sending the email I would like a message to pop up that asks
if I would like to print the email and I could choose either 'Yes" or 'No'.

Dose anyone have a solution?

Thanks,
Martin Boys.

I don't have the solution for you, but if you want to write the code:

use the ItemAdd event of the SentItems folder. The VBA help file provides
you with a sample for ItemAdd. In that event use the MsgBox function with
the parameter vbYesNo. If the user clicks Yes then call the item's PrintOut
property.

Thanks for your help. I have experience wiritng macros in Excel, but never
in Outlook. Do you possibly have an example of some code I could copy?

This sample prints new e-mails:
http://www.vboffice.net/sample.html?...showitem&pub=6

In Application_Startup replace olFolderInbox by olFolderSentItems. In the
print procedure replace the Mail.Unread by the mentioned MsgBox, which is
the same funtion as in Excel.
