Redemption - How to create an Exchange public folder and send andmanage email?

P

Paul H

Using Access 2007.

I have been doing a bit of research and I think I need Redemption for
this (as far as I understand, the CDO stuff that comes with Outlook is
limited).

Initially I will manually create a "Parent" Exchange Public folder
called "Clients".

Once I have created that Parent folder here is what I want to do
programmatically:

1. Create an email with attachments.
2. The Onclick event of the SendEmail Button should:
a) Attempt to send the Email.
b) Check if the email was sent successfully
c) If OK, create an Exchange folder for the client in the main
"Clients" folder
d) Place a copy of the sent email in the client's folder

Should I be doing all of this with Redemption or does Redemption only
come into play when sending the email? In other words, should I have
one "Redemption" function that deals with actually sending email and
other non-Redemption functions to perform all the checking and folder
creation? I have tinkered with CDO and MAPI and had a poke at
Redemption, but I am a bit lost. I have written some fairly complex
systems with plenty of VBA, but I haven't done that much coding in
this area.

Can anyone give me some code chunks or pointers to get me started?

Thanks,

Paul
