What i need to do is be able to catch a message being sent by a user and modify that message for both the sender and the recipients. I am writing this for Exchange server 2003. Please any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Nathan
Do you want to do this for messages being sent Internal or Externally ? This can be done using Event sinks with Exchange you might want to have a look into both Transport Sinks http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998610.aspx and Exchange Store Event sinks. The best place to start is download the Exchange SDK and also you might want to have a look at http://blogs.msdn.com/mstehle/archive/2006/01/17/514019.aspx which give a good rundown on Store Event sinks. cheers Glen wrote in message news:1194535013.691650.51430@t8g2000prg.googlegroups.com... > What i need to do is be able to catch a message being sent by a user > and modify that message for both the sender and the recipients.

My design, ideally, will be synchronously hooking messages being sent from internal users to either other internal or external (private addresses). I want to catch messages before they are actually sent so that I can scan them for certain content, if the message is found with this content I want to remove it, and in its place put a message. I'm confused as to which interface(s) I should implement to make this possible. Thank you very much.

To do Internal Messages you can look at a Global/Store Wide Event Sink for anything going External you need to use a transport Sink. Otherwise you could look at an Outlook Plugin and try and capture it before they send it from Outlook. Modifying the content of a message if they are in TNEF format as per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/273233/en-us can be difficult. Some other considerations are there are a lot of good 3rd party content control products already written out there http://www.slipstick.com/addins/content_control.asp. Exchange 2007 also makes this process a lot easier with Transport agents but you need to keep in mind that any transport sinks you end up writting for Exchange 2003 wont work on Exchange 2007 (store events will work okay) Cheers Glen "Norlamin Fletcher" wrote in message news:1194872643.197557.52680@22g2000hsm.googlegroups.com... > My design, ideally, will be synchronously hooking messages being sent > from internal users to either other internal or external (private > addresses).
