MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Forms / March 2009How do I create a custom action for a rule? (Save as "Nfy.MSG")
If possible, I want to create an outlook email-rule that automatically saves a .MSG copy of my email. I see there is an option to "perform a custom action", but I don't know how to create any "custom actions"... A rule custom action is an external DLL file. You probably would be better off using the run a script action. The "script" is an Outlook VBA public Sub that has this argument signature: Sub myScript(Item As MailItem) ' whatever name you want The incoming email item is passed to that macro, so from there you can just use the item's SaveAs method.
