Custom fields when sorting

[Øyvind]

Hi
Using Outlook 2003 on Exchange 2003
I have set up a shared mailbox that several users shal access. I then want
to be able to track which user has read or modified a mail item.
I thought of creating a custom field that I shal populate with the username
once he has done a change.
I tried using the "changed by" field, but it does not meet my needs as all
of the users must have "Full mailbox access" to see the search folders
defined on the shared mailboxes. And with "Full mailbox access" the changed
by field only gets the shared mailbox user.

So, I would much appreciate if anyone could enlighten me on the creating of
custom fields and the population of these.
Or maybe on where I could find some documentation on this..

Thanks
Øyvind

You don't need to use a search folder to show a custom field applied to all
items in the Inbox.
