Prompt to file message when sent

[Guest]

Hi,
I'd like Outlook to ....

1-prompt me as to where to file a message when I send it
2-automatically file the sent item to that folder I've selected instead of
the Sent Items folder

I'm unable to use the Rules feature since there is a lot of variability in
which folders I file items.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP! I haven't been able to figure this out

Hi Rebaroni,

why don´t you use the options dialog of the MailItem? At that point you
can choose the folder for each MailItem.

If it must be a programmatically solution: you can place your code in
the Application_ItemSend event (this won´t work if you use OL2k and Word
as mail editor). The PickFolder function allows you to choose a
MapiFolder.
