Has anyone done this? I'm trying to write VBA code in Outlook to identify and control incoming SPAM. Unfortunately, Microsoft protects the privacy of spammers with its Outlook security model: you can't ask useful things like "did this mail originate within my company?" of the Outlook VBA object model! The solution appears to be to use Extended MAPI. Now, you know the rest of the story. -- Terry Westley westley@yahoo.com
