| EUD2IEM
|
This freeware program converts

redirection. |
| Exchange Download Display Extension
|

| Exchange Hook
|
Generic mechanism for adding
Exchange/Outlook client extensions that perform
actions when you open or close messages, based on
a particular e-mail address in the From field on
the message. When Exchange Hook is installed, you
should see a new Message Handlers tab
in the Tools | Options dialog.
(If you don't see this tab in Outlook, make sure
Exchange Hook is installed in the Add-In Manager.)
Use this tab to configure Exchange Hook to process
messages with different programs that you create
with Visual Basic or other tools. Exchange Hook
runs the receiving program, passing it the text
"ExchangeMessageID" followed by the
unique message ID for the item. For more
information, click the Help button
on the Message Handlers tab in Tools
| Options or search your
system for Exchhook.hlp. Contact information for
the developer is on the Copyright page. Strictly for developers. With source code. |
