Hi All & Dmitry & Ken

I am developing an addin for outlook. Chose C#.NET to develop it. And
i really very much frustrated after 4 or 5 months of work finding no
visible good improvement. I have much regrets in choosing .NET for
development.

1)Extended MAPI is not supported in .NET.  
2)And security alerts that pops up when we try to access mailItems.
3).NET is buggy(???ur views) and doesnot have much provision or
control over things in outlook.
4) And want to bring back a deleted mail from the database to the
folder it was before. In this case want to set the read only headers
like sender name, time etc..

My Questions are

1) Is Changing to VC++ is good and WILL IT SOLVE ALL THE PROBLEMS AND
CAN I HAVE THE SAME CONTROL AS C++. All the MVPs are suggesting C++
and no one says C++. Why??

2)Dmitry do you have plans on writing a .Net native version of
Redemption? How good the redemption object will be in .NET. i have no
doubts it is good. But for .NET will it support all versions of
outlook and solve all the problems i am facing and going to face(still
not figured out!!!).

Advance special thanks to Dmitry and KEN

1. Yes. Do you mean C++ vs VC++? In 99% of the cases, the two are the same.
2. Not currently. Redemption is a regular COM object and the interop
assemlies generated by .Net work just fine.
