How to insert text at cursor position in mailitems body

[Guest]

Via the body property of the Mailitem object you can manipulate the text of
the mailbody. I am wondering, however, if it is possible to insert text at
the current position of the cursur in the mail body.
This is relevant when your application first create the mail and opens the
mailwindow for the user, let them write the general mail and then finally
have options through your application to insert different texts according to
the user's choice in your application window.

You cannot insert text at the cursor with Outlook objects, because Outlook
exposes no object related to the insertion point. If WordMail is the editor,
you can use Word automation; see
http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=455 for a code sample.
Otherwise, you can use Redemption's SafeInspector object (
