Re: Convert from IMailItem to IPostItem...

Post items are never sent, they are posted. If you want the message in the
sent state, trap the MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event (where MAPIFolder points
to the Sent Items folder). By that time the item is in the sent state and
its sender related properties are set.
