I assume that's because in OL07 it's not expected you want to send
categories. (And it doesn't without adding an entry to the registry.)

hi there,

I need to place the "Categorize" command onto the quick access toolbar of
a
message form (IPM.note) because I need to set categories during creation
of
an email message (I am using rules on outgoing messages).

while I am able to add the "Categorize" command on virtually any other
form
(create/read appointment, create/read task, etc), I do not find the
"Categorize" command (CategorizeMenu) to be added when I create an email
message. is this possible anyway?

this is how it looks like when I try to add Categorize to any type of form
(except send email): http://smilebear.info/pics/S-080509-01.jpg

I did a workaround with a macro (and also have the "Message Options"
command), but I'd rather liked to have the "Categorize" menu button on the
quick access toolbar.

while we are at it, even with the macro, I can't see the applied category
during message creation. in every other form, I can see the category
immediately in a bar between ribbon and quick access toolbar. can I enable
this as well?

thanks
