Hi,

I am prograaming an addin for outlook 2007. I was hoping if you guys

could provide some insights into my problem.....bascially whn an email

is recieved by 2 or more people.....and one of them handles it(i.e

stores it in my local db...) how would i notify the other users that

the email has already been addded....? I could use a unique property

stored in the DB but i was wondering if there was any other way

avoiding DB calls...?

Thanks!
 
You could send emails to the other recipients, but that would require manual

action on their parts to receive/read it and that before they tried to add

it to the database. It also wouldn't be doable for Bcc recipients.

If the emails all came in over the Internet then you could use the

PR_INTERNET_MESSAGE_ID property as a GUID for the message. You'd get that

with Outlook 2007's PropertyAccessor and the DASL property tag

"urn:schemas:mailheader:message-id" or using an alternate API such as

Redemption (www.dimastr.com/redemption) with the property tag 0x1035001E.

That could be stored as a column in the DB table as an ID column.

However, mails sent and received internally only within an Exchange

organization don't have that property of course, so that would require a

different approach.
