changed EntryID

[Peter Ramsebner]

Hi all,

i'm logging outgoing mail messages in a external database (sql server). One
of the saved data is the EntryID of a message.
To log the messages i use 'ThisOutlookSession'.
Because of the fact that new messages doesn't have an EntryID first i have
to save the message...

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, Cancel As Boolean)

Item.Save
Debug.Print Item.EntryID

Exit Sub


--> The Problem is, that this EntryID is not the EntryID you will see
later!!!
Outlook is changing the EntryID!

1) But why?

2) What can i do to get the right EntryID?


Thanks,

Peter

Try logging when new items hit the Sent Items folder, rather than with
ItemSend.

See http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=456 for a sample
demonstrates how to monitor the Sent Items folder and display the Categories
dialog for each item sent (Outlook 2002 or later only). You could use the
same framework to perform other operations on the sent messages.

But not with Outlook 2000?

Versions earlier than 2002 do not provide a way to display the Categories
dialog
