I have a folder that I have temporarily created in the deleted items folder
in order to display an email message programatically. When I delete this
folder using the following code, a window with the message "Deleting items
from the [Folder Name] folder" pops up. How do I supress this window or at
least minimize it?

Here's the code below:

Dim mOutlookAppl = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application
mOutlookAppl.GetNamespace("MAPI").Logon()

Dim myfolder As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MapiFolder

myFolder = mOutlookAppl.GetNamespace("MAPI").GetDefaultFolder _
(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderDeletedItems). _
Folders.Add("My New Folder")

....do some stuff...
myFolder.Delete()

Thanks!

That's a setting determined by the user (prompt before deleting items),
which you can't simply turn off. I assume it's stored in the registry; you
could change that setting, but after that you'd have to restart Outlook.

Why do you need a folder to display an item?

The message box does not prompt the user to do anything, it seems to be
informational only.

We are creating a folder because we are importing a message from a .eml file
using Redemption, and we don't want the message to show up in the user's
inbox folder. We create a special temp folder to store these imported
messages, display them using the Outlook API, and then once the user is done
viewing them, we delete the folder and the messages from Outlook, since the
..eml files are stored elsewhere.
