Another Outlook question


  • Subject: Another Outlook question
  • From: RJay Hansen <email@hidden>

I want to confirm an email was sent from Outlook and display a dialog to the user if it was. In Outlook’s dictionary, an outgoing message has a property, “was sent”. This sounds like exactly what I need, but… experimentation shows if the message hasn’t been sent, it will return false as expected. However if the message is sent you get an error trying to get the was sent property:

"Microsoft Outlook got an error: Can’t get outgoing message id 11028." number -1728 from outgoing message id 11028

I assume, because the message is gone. So I thought if I can find the message in the Sent Items folder I can confirm it was sent. However I can’t figure out how to access messages in Outlooks folders. Or if it’s even possible. The dictionary indicates one of a mail folder’s elements is messages, but trying to get the messages in “Sent Items” or referring to it by its id yields an empty list.

Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can accomplish this short of sending a read receipt request?

Thanks,
RJay
