We have lots of rules in Outlook functional mailbox and we wanted to export them into clear text for review purposes. Is there any way to do that?
Thanks,
EddieT
No, not unless you write some code to do that.

I was assigned for a client that needs and Outlook add-in and apparently, I don't know where to start but the client said that he wants that dollar icon to replace the person icon to create another function. I was wondering if that's possible, I mean, that has been pre-defined by the Microsoft team and they are the ones that have the source code. How am I supposed to do that?
PS. Sorry for bad english
Alright. I think I figured this out a little. I found a documentation of Microsoft here.
I wonder whether someone could help me please.
Firstly, I'm not even sure whether this is possible but I thought I'd ask.
I have a serious of Outlook Email templates which I want to adapt so that the operator can enter a recipients name, a user name and password.
Could someone tell me please whether this is possible and if so, how I would go about developing this.
Many thanks and kind regards
Chris
Outlook doesn't provide anything for that out of the box. But you can develop a VBA macro or COM add-in which can get the user's input and paste it to the email where required. See Getting Started with VBA in Outlook 2010.

I'd like to use Tiddlywiki for a personal knowledge base. In my work flow a lot of content comes in as Outlook emails threads.
Is there a smart way to refer to this content without fully copying over the whole text to each and every tiddler manually?
Maybe saving Outlook mail thread as .msg file, placing it locally and referring to that file might work. The tiddler then may hold some basic summy, but whole detail content lies in the .msg file.
Any ideas?
I am in such case (more struggling with TiddlyWiki, which is great but lacks documentation currently). I ended up using the outlook:oid url-style that opens the mail in outlook. However, it's difficult to retrieve a mail oid, especially as this id changes when copying (and maybe moving) the mail to other folders/pst files.
In my case, I use some outlook mailbox parser that detect specific markup (categories, actions), and take appropriate actions (move them, create the outlook:oid link somewhere, etc). It's ugly but does the job.
You've essentially answered your own question. Alternatively, use gmail or the likes to get proper links that only you can follow.
When composing an outlook message, I would like to provide non-invasive feedback to the user regarding whether the email is being sent to email addresses on approved domains.
For example, if the user is sending an email where the 'To:', 'CC:' or 'BCC:' text fields contains an email address which does not end in '#AnEmailAddress.com' then a warning of some kind should be displayed appropriately.
The warning could be a single icon which shows red or green, or perhaps each name/email address can be formatted on the 'To:' et al text fields directly, in order to provide the feedback.
I've done some digging with no specific results. I'm not sure if this can be done with VBA or the scripting within Outlook forms. Or perhaps an add-in needs to be written via .net?
Any pointers greatly appreciated.
This is a good candidate for .NET add-in. Not sure if you can do that from VBA.
Depending on the range of Outlook versions you need to support, you may want to go for VSTO add-in (separate builds for different versions) or NetOffice (one build for nearly all versions). Both have pros and cons so you need to be more specific to make a choice.
If you already compose your outlook messages with for example C# than use it also to implement some kind of alerts you want..
You question is - VBA, scripting or .NET?
My answer: it depends on your skills and preferences
How would I implement a word processor on a website I'm making? The point is I want a user to be able to type in text and it have syntax highlighting in the text box they're typing in. Could someone instruct me in how to do this?
Use TinyMCE http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/
It's pretty easy to use it, look at the examples http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/examples/full.php
Alternatively, you have those:
YUI Editor
Free Rich Text Editor
RTE
=D
Actually I ended up using CodeMirror, it was perfect. Emacs also may be good for other people.
