Making Microsoft Outlook Useful - Part 2
There are many uses of filtering your email. Outlook comes with quite a few nifty little gadgets for helping you to filter your mail, such as the Rules Wizard and the Junk Email options. But sometimes that just isnt quite enough, or you may want to get certain mails outside of Outlook.
This article came about after I wrote a little program to read a bunch of mails in a certain folder (placed in there by an Outlook rule), which filtered out any duplicate mails and any mails that my program deemed to be blank.
After whipping this up with a few extra little features in about 2 hours I was amazed how easy yet powerful the object model is.
So, without further unnecessary tales of my programming tasks, Ill take you into some code!
