I have found a similar post by another user. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61183940/is-there-any-way-to-call-send-method-on-composed-mail-opened-in-inline-reply-bas
which is answered, But the page which has answer is no longer active https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61142613/using-activeinlineresponse-in-vsto-add-in-send-mailitem-after-modifying-header/61144021#comment108226887_61144021
Tried noting as such
Edit : I did call the Item.Send in the Inspector Activate event.. and new inspector event where i call the activate method.
But the window does not disappear unless I click on the window icon in the task bar [to bring it to focus.].
void Inspectors_NewInspector(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Inspector Inspector)
{
Base objBase = new Base();
dynamic mailItem = objBase.GetItemObject(Inspector.CurrentItem);
var inspector = Inspector as Outlook.InspectorEvents_10_Event;
if (inspector != null)
{
inspector.Close += Inspectors_CloseInspector;
}
if (mailItem != null)
{
//if (mailItem.EntryID == null)
//{
if (mailItem is Outlook.MailItem)
{
if (IsInlineItem)
{
_MailItem = mailItem;
((Outlook.InspectorEvents_Event)Inspector).Activate += new Outlook.InspectorEvents_ActivateEventHandler(InspectorActivate);
((Outlook.InspectorEvents_Event)Inspector).Deactivate += new Outlook.InspectorEvents_DeactivateEventHandler(InspectorDeactivate);
((Outlook.InspectorEvents_Event)Inspector).Close += new Outlook.InspectorEvents_CloseEventHandler(Inspectors_CloseInspector);
Inspector.Activate();
}
else if (mailItem.Sent == false)
{ _MailItem = mailItem; }
else
{
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(mailItem);
}
}
else
{
_MailItem = mailItem;
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(mailItem);
}
//}
}
objBase.WriteError("new Inspector");
}
private void InspectorActivate()
{
Base objBase = new Base();
Outlook.Inspector ActiveInspector = Application.ActiveInspector();
if (ActiveInspector is null)
{
}
else
{
//Base objBase = new Base();
dynamic selectedItem = objBase.GetItemObject(ActiveInspector.CurrentItem);
if (selectedItem != null && _MailItem.Subject == selectedItem.Subject && selectedItem.Sent == false)
{
try
{
selectedItem.Send();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
finally
{
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(selectedItem);
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(ActiveInspector);
}
}
}
That question got deleted. I will repost the answer:
Yes, OOM blocks some methods for the inline response. The best you can do is simulate a click on the Send button using the accessibility API.
If using Redemption is an option (I am its author), it exposes SafeExplorer.ActiveInlineResponseSend method:
SafeExplorer sExplorer = new Redemption.SafeExplorer();
sExplorer.Item = Application.ActiveExplorer;
sExplorer.ActiveInlineResponseSend();
