Lets have installed Outlook 2007 and an outlook connector. This connector
serves as connector to our mail server and allows work with calendar,
contacts, tasks and other items on our mailserver.

Our connector on the very beginning calls SetUnhandledExceptionFilter() to
register our own filter for unhandled exceptions. Our filter, when called,
create crashdump and send it to us. After that, it call old handler (so
Windows Error Reporting is invoked too). However, this works with older
versions of Outlook, but not with Outlook 2007.

When our connector crash (in Outlook 2007), our handler is not called.

Questions:

1, is it intentional, that Outlook 2007 disallow to plugins installation of
unhandled exception filters?

2, is there a way, how to force Outlook to use our "unhandled exception
filter"? We are really interested in crashdumps of outlook process, because
these crashes may be caused by our "outlook connector" and we want to know
about them and fix related bug.

3, when will this become fixed in Outlook 2007, if it is bug of this version
of Outlook?

Thank you in advice for your reply
