I would like to redirect a message received from a specific email to another email address. The email address to which the message will be redirected to will never be the same.
I thought of using scripts to accomplish this, where the email address to which the email must be redirected to subject of the email. The format of the subject of the original message is:
subject/redirectAddress@email.com
I have written the following script but when the rule executes the script nothing happens. Can you pleas tell me what mistake I made and why this script appears to do nothing?
Sub CodeSubjectForward(Item As Outlook.MailItem)
Dim txt As String
Dim EAddress As String
Dim Temp As String
Dim pos
txt = Item.Subject
pos = InStr(txt, "/")
Temp = Left(txt, pos - 1)
EAddress = Right(txt, Len(txt) - pos - 1)
Dim objMsg As MailItem
Set objMsg = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
objMsg.body = Item.body
objMsg.Subject = Temp
objMsg.Recipients.Add EAddress
objMsg.Display
End Sub
Open a mailitem that fits the rule conditions and step through this.
Option Explicit
Private Sub CodeSubjectForward_Test()
Dim currItem As MailItem
Set currItem = ActiveInspector.currentItem
CodeSubjectForward currItem
End Sub
If you get to CodeSubjectForward then the rule conditions are not correct.
