I'm not sure if Outlook automation (Outlook object model) allows this. I
believe you need to resort to Extended MAPI to accomplish that. In that case
you need to use C/C++ or Delphi because Extended MAPI cannot be scripted.
Your best bet to get more information about Extended MAPI problems is to
repost your question in microsoft.public.win32.programmer.messaging.
