Hello,

What we have done at work is to create a thread

In the Inspector Clos event :

If RemoveItemAfterClose Then

Dim TS As New System.Threading.ThreadStart(AddressOf

WrapperMailItem.Delete)

Dim t As System.Threading.Thread = New System.Threading.Thread(TS)

Try

t.Start()

Catch ex As Exception

MsgBox(ex.ToString)

End Try

End If

Works like a charm

Just make sure you do not access the Outlook object model on that thread or

if you do that you first marshal the thread to the main thread in your code.

Otherwise you not only crash or hang Outlook but also break any other addin

that's running.

If you cannot meet those conditions then your solution will cause problems,

not fix them.
