Hello everybody:

I would like to know if it's possible to launch, automatically, a program
when an email is recieved.

Thank you.

Hi Frank,

in Outlook under "Tools/Rules Wizard" you could create a rule like "after
incomming of a message" click next and select
"start application".

If you click on "application" you can select the program that you whant.

Maybe it helps.

Click to expand...

Keep in mind, though, that there's probably no way to pass any parameters to
the application.

Of course, if you are willing and able to write some VBA code, you can
pretty much do anything in terms of executing another program and passing
parameters.
