Hi all
Getting a little stuck on my outbound rules / vba code. I currently run an excellent addin called TAGLOCITY which tags emails with categories. What I am trying to do PREFIX the mail subject based on the category. NOTE: The taglocity addin triggers a category request AFTER the item.send action.
for example;
I have a category "100 Love St" (this is my project name)
I have a color for all PROJECTS -- construction project are DARKGREEN
When I send the mail I want the addin to check the subject for a ":"
Then if there is no ":", prefix with "Job:" and the category.
I have the code for this and it works fine if i manually trigger the vba code. I have a rule to hold the email in outbox for 1minute to give the program time to modify and for me to go in and cancel the send

. My question is how can I trigger the code to work AFTER the item.send command and there after the TAGLOCITY addin has had a chance to add in the category.
code below:
Sub PrefixMailItemInOutbox()
Dim oNS As Outlook.NameSpace
Dim oFld As Outlook.Folder
Dim oItems As Outlook.Items
Dim oItem As Object
Dim Item As Outlook.MailItem
On Error GoTo OL_Error
Set oNS = Application.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set oFld = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderOutbox)
Set oItems = oFld.Items
'Set objItem = GetCurrentItem()
StoreID = oFld.StoreID
For Each oItem In oItems
If InStr(1, oItem.Subject, ":", vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
If Len(oItem.Categories) 0 Then
Set objItem = oNS.GetItemFromID(oItem.EntryID, StoreID)
For Each objCategory In oNS.Categories
If InStr(1, objItem.Categories, objCategory.Name, vbTextCompare) 0 Then
Select Case objCategory.Color
Case OlCategoryColor.olCategoryColorDarkRed
objItem.Subject = "Roofing:" & objCategory.Name & " - " & objItem.Subject
objItem.Save
Case OlCategoryColor.olCategoryColorBlack
objItem.Subject = "Carpentry:" & objCategory.Name & " - " & objItem.Subject
objItem.Save
Case OlCategoryColor.olCategoryColorDarkGreen
objItem.Subject = "Job:" & objCategory.Name & " - " & objItem.Subject
objItem.Save
End Select
End If
Next
End If
objItem.Send
'Set objItem = Nothing
End If
Next
Exit Sub
OL_Error:
MsgBox Err.Description
Err.Clear
End Sub
Thanks in advance
