Crm 2011 Outlook Outlook - install against required

Our client is using Microsoft Outlook CRM 2011 Outlook and they have a unique business need. They want to make "Set Regarding" mandatory for all their employees using Outlook to send emails (Weird huh?). If a user forgets to set when sending an email, a notification should be displayed regarding the appearance and should not allow the user to send an email.

I couldn't find any of them, so I decided to write addlook. Is there a way to tell the outlook addin ItemSend event that the mail item has the value set for the field? I can get the subject of the email including CRM: xxxxx, but since the email has not yet been created in CRM, I have no idea how to pull the relevant data.

Tracking information is stored in the mail's MAPI properties. See attached screenshot. They must be available in the ItemSend event.

You can get this information like this (from @Ahmeds comment)



dynamic regardingId = mailItem.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty("schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/‌​;{00020329-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/crmRegardingId/0x0000001F");

I used the following code in VS2012 and Outlook 2010 to get the corresponding GUID.



dynamic id = mailItem.UserProperties["crmRegardingId"]; 
if (id != null) Console.Write(id.Value); 
else Console.Write("Error");
