Correct: NewMailEx fires only for the user's own mail accounts, not for new mail delivered to other mailboxes opened as secondary mailboxes. The event to use for folders from other mailboxes would be MAPIFolder.Items.Add.

We have several users sharing a mailbox using the "Open these additional
mailboxes" option. Trouble is even if the VBA code is setup using this
configuration the procedure will not fire. If I create a new profile and
start outlook directly to this mailbox the sub routine fires just fine.

Does NewMailEx only work when you open the mailbox directly? Or am I doing
something wrong or is there a better way to do this?

Private Sub Application_NewMailEx(ByVal EntryIDCollection As String)

....stuff

end sub
