I've created some code in the ThisOutlookSession module (using the
NewInspector event) which works fine. However, it is completely ignored if a
user creates an email from a file in Word or Windows Explorer. Is there any
way to include my code for these ways of creating an email?

thanks

If an email is created using one of the SendTo methods that use Simple MAPI
you will never get NewInspector and Outlook won't know about the email. In
fact, the email won't even be in the Inspectors collection so you couldn't
even poll that collection to see if anything was added to it.

Thanks Ken - though I guess Outlook must know about this type of email to
some extent because they're still put in the Sent Items folder. Is there a
way of substituting the default mail message template with a custom form
instead?

Not that I know of. As far as I'm concerned Send To is unusable.
