Sort of. Depends on what you want to do with it.

move it to a folder

in the end I have used the following

Dim WithEvents objInboxItems As Outlook.Items
Dim objDestinationFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder

Sub StartRule()
Dim objNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim objInboxFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder

Set objNameSpace = Application.Session
Set objInboxFolder = objNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
Set objInboxItems = objInboxFolder.Items
Set objDestinationFolder = objInboxFolder.Folders("Temp")
End Sub

Sub StopRule()
Set objInboxItems = Nothing
End Sub

Private Sub objInboxItems_ItemAdd(ByVal Item As Object)
If Item.Subject = "" Then
Item.Move objDestinationFolder
End If
End Sub

which seems to work
