double click mail item
 

is it possible to catch the double click event when a user double clicks an
item in folder and override what it does

You will need to trap the Application.ActivereExplorer.SelectionChange
event, for each selected item trap the MailItem.Open event, which has a
Cancel parameter (passed by refereence). By setting that parameter to TRUE,
you can prevent Outlook from opening that item.
