Hi

Im writing an outlook 2003 addin, and i need to add an item to the context
menu on emails. (the right-click menu that appears on emails in the inbox.)

I have done som research and i seems that this i only supported in outlook
2007, however I have seen work arounds on the net, mostly in VB. But does
anybody know how to do this in c# or might point me in a direction were i
might find a solution.

Cheers.
Danny
 
Richard Kagerer has posted a code sample at http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=314 that shows how you might trick Outlook into exposing the context menu through Explorer.CommandBars.

The C++ sample add-in at http://www.codeproject.com/atl/outlook2k3addin.asp also shows a technique for working with the context menu.
