I was wondering how this is possible:
Obviously it's not the new office.js API, is this made using AppleScript? Will such approach still work in Outlook 2016 for Mac?

Programmatically loop through all existing SENT ITEMS and copy to new folder
I want to open with the fact that I am not a programmer.
I'm looking to have a VSTO deployed through group policy to all users at my company. I need the VSTO to do a couple of steps:1. Create a new folder called, "Old Sent Mail", if already exist ignore
2. Programmatically loop through all existing SENT ITEMS
3. Copy Sent Items to a "Old Sent Mail". If sent mail has already been copied to new folder, it should ignore it.
The program needs to be trigger each time Outlook has been restarted.
If someone is doing something similar to this, can you provide a copy of your code that I can work from? Thanks ahead of time for any help with this.
Outlook rules will not meet my needs because they are client-based rather than server-based. This is for retention purposes, because Sent Items are deleted after 180 days by Exchange administrators.

Include Original Text Message when AutoReply
I set an AutoReply rule using a template. The problem is that the reply does not add the original message.
does anyone have an idea what script VBScript should i add in order to add the original message in the reply?
Tried with this, but it does not work
Sub AutoReply(Item As Outlook.MailItem)Dim olkReply As Outlook.MailItem
Set olkReply = Item.Reply
With olkReply
'Change the subject on the next line as desired'
.Subject = "Your Subject Goes Here"
'Change the body as desired'
.HTMLBody = "Your reply text goes here.<bt><br>" & olkReply.HTMLBody
.Send
End With
Set olkReply = Nothing
End Sub
Thank you!

Some group policies are applied on same machine
And I'm having complete rights(Admin) on my machine
Can you please help which one blocking me to get those details or any code changes needed ??
Or any settings in outlook 2010 client need to be changed?? or McAfee having any special setting to block reading of outlook mailsprogrammatically?? or Is there any chance to block programatic reading of outlook items using group policy??
Is there any permissions at exchange server level which blocking me?? (exchange sever 2003 - patch applied to support 2010)
Please Help me out from this issue. YOUR HELP SHOULD BE MUCH APPRICIATED.

ItemChange Fires Multiple Times on a Change
[Using Outlook Professional 2013]
[OutlookSpy being used to track events]
We have an Add-In that updates a database when an Outlook Appointment has been updated.
The issue is that when you make a change, the ItemChange event fires multiple times. What this means for us is that a single change will trigger Multiple updates to our database with the same exact information;
a waste.
Maybe the ItemChange event handler is the wrong place to update my database. Any suggestions?
RECREATE
1. Create an Appointment in your Calendar.
2. Right Click on that Appointment / Select "Categorize" / Select a Category
The following Appointment events are fired
PropertyChange (Categories)
Write (false)
BeforeCheckNames (false)
AfterWrite ()
<Unknown(DispID=0x0000FC95)> (false)
The following Items events are fired
ItemChange (IDispatch)
ItemChange (IDispatch)
ItemChange (IDispatch)

Customising the text in a Meeting Request
In Outlook, is it possible to change the text that appears when a user clicks on a New Skype for Business request?
This has to be VSTO based solution.
Ideally I would like that when they click on the New Skype for Business meeting I change the default link that's put in and replace it with some customised text and code that pulls out the Conference Id from PSTN.
Or, is there a better way to achieve this?

How to save message in the inbox into the same folder of another message shown on (conversation view mode) outlook 2016
How to save message in the inbox into the same folder of another message shown on (conversation view mode) outlook 2016
Dears
I am using office 2013 or 2016
If I am filtering the inbox by date and using (conversion view)
When a new message arrives, I can see it in the inbox, and see old emails (previously saved in other folders,let's call them XXXX or YYY)
All in teh same conversation
now I need to move the new message arrived into the one of teh other folders (say XXX or YYY)
but I want to avoid
1- drag and drop from inbox pane to folder pane (i need to scroll and hover over all folders)
2- using the right click on message , then form the menu is select, move to other folder, then i start rolling from folder window
Hint: Using rules is not helping in this regard
I prefer to select the new message (in the Inbox, not yet directed to any folder) and the older message (already in a folder XXX or YYY)
and then click in something like (it can be in the right click , or even a macro with icon)
(Save in same folder) or
(merge in folder)
(move to same folder)
which does not exist under all commands or rules or any other way
What i need help with is:
- If a Macro is the solution, can you provide me with this macro, then I can copy/paste it and apply
- or tell me better option, that may exist somewhere but i do not know
- If you go to the online version of outlook, on office 365, there is an option of (searching the folder) under move email to, so i can write the first 3 letters of a folder, it is faster to find, but on the desk top outlook 2013, and 2016 this function is not there, this is a sample of solution but the online outlook 365 is very slow compered with the desktop version of outlook 2013 or 2016

Excel Sending Email via VBA - Suppressing the Warnings
Hello everybody,
I would be very appreciative if someone more knowledgeable than would help me out. I am building a VBA code in Excel that will send an Excel File as an attachment in an email to somebody using Outlook. I can get everything to work just fine except that a warning message pops up and it is quite irritation and negates the usefulness of the macro if I have to constantly click on [Allow].
Any help with how to suppress the warning messages would be greatly appreciated!
Note: My company's IT will not let me download add-ins or programs not on their "safe" list.
Also, I have included the important parts of my code below.
Thanks!
