Currently I am doing a project that requires me to "listen" for new emails coming in MS Outlook. I have code that currently works to do everything else with the emails, but I'm not sure of the API/VB code (this is MS Access 2010 which uses VBA 7.0 running on a 64-Bit Windows machine) that will listen for new emails.

I am sending an email with an attachment using the following Code
Dim msg As New System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(req.EmailFrom, req.EmailTo)
Dim att As New System.Net.Mail.Attachment("C:Documents and SettingsmichaelrDesktop1216259.pdf")
With msg

The file size of the attachment is 396KB, upon the recipient receiving the email outlook shows the file size as 543Kb. Strange thing is if I send an email with the same attachment using outlook the file size is 396Kb.I understand that file sizes can increase due to the attachment being base 64 encoded as opposed to just raw binary.What I am failing to see is why outlook send a file which is 396KB in size but in code when sending it, the same file is 543Kb.

I have an Outlook add-in that I started in VS 2010, and have no idea how to go about the following. The plugin should save the an email after you send it. I.e. after you create a new email and you click on the send button I would like that email to be saved as an .msg file.

The plugin should save the an email after you send it. I.e. after you create a new email and you click on the send button I would like that email to be saved as an .msg file.Now I can get a selected file (i.e. from the inbox or folder) to save from the plugin but dont know how to go about saving the email that I just sent. It's mainly to make sure that I have a copy of the email if I accidentally delete it.
View 2 RepliesI have a script that sends an email via Outlook 2003 (below) The script works fine on 9 out of 10 PC's There is a specific user, however, that it is not working with. When the user executes the code, the message ends up in the "Sent Items" folder in Outlook but the message does not actually send. The only thing I can see that is different from the other users is that there is nothing in the "From" field in the sent message when it should be the email of whoever is sending. All users are on Exchange server.

View 2 RepliesI'm having trouble coding some new items into a program of mine. The program loops through you Inbox looking for emails that are UNREAD and have a certain subject line. The subject line in this case, is going to search for: "FAX TO: ###########" (actually, it just searches for FAX TO). Next step, I need the selected email to be FORWARDED to the fax number in the subject line - including attachments. In my code - I've already got the message selected - but I can't figure out how to programmatically forward it? I need explicit code help with the following:
1) Check to make sure there are 10 digits in the original subject line. If not - bail out and ignore that message.
2) Trim the subject line and save the phone number to a string
3) Forward the message (plus attachments) to the [URL]
