MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming VBA / September 2005Referencing a MailItem after it has been sent
I've been searching all afternoon to find a way of referencing an email after it has been sent from Outlook - there are plenty of people asking how to do this but I can't find any replies. Is this impossible or is there a way to do it? You'll need to retrieve it from the Sent Items folder using MAPIFolder.Items.Find.

How can I find the last item added to the sent items folder? You'll need to retrieve it from the Sent Items folder using MAPIFolder.Items.Find.

Use the MAPIFolder.Items.Sort method to sort on the SentOn property and then Items.GetFirst or GetLast, as appropriate. That's not the best method, though, since if there are multiple items waiting to be delivered to the server, you have no control over what order they'll appear in Sent Items (or in fact, when they'll appear in Sent Items -- that depends on Outlook's email configuration). I would instead set a property value on the item that can be used for retrieval with Items.Find.
