ConversationID is `Nothing` in VSTO Application.ItemSend sub
0
I'm trying to create a performance tracking app - which at a basic level will work out how quickly I'm replying to emails.
I think I may be using the wrong "sent item" trigger event though, because the conversation ID is nothing for some replies in the below sub Application_ItemSend:
Public Class ThisAddIn
Public Shared ConversationThreads As Dictionary(Of String, Date)
Private Sub Application_NewMailEx(EntryIDCollection As String) Handles Application.NewMailEx
For Each itemID In Split(EntryIDCollection, ",")
Dim item = Application.Session.GetItemFromID(itemID)
If TypeName(item) = "MailItem" Then
'is it a Tracked Email
Dim msg As Outlook.MailItem
msg = item
ConversationThreads.Add(msg.ConversationID, Now())
End If
Next
End Sub
Private Sub Application_ItemSend(Item As Object, ByRef Cancel As Boolean) Handles Application.ItemSend
If TypeName(Item) = "MailItem" Then
'is it a Tracked Email
Dim msg As Outlook.MailItem
msg = Item
For Each tRecipient As Outlook.Recipient In msg.Recipients
If Not msg.ConversationID Is Nothing AndAlso
ConversationThreads.ContainsKey(msg.ConversationID) Then
Call OpenCloseThread(msg.ConversationID)
End If
Next
End If
End Sub
end class
Should I be using a different trigger for this sub?

Call msg.Save() before reading the ConversationID property.

That hasn't worked. Does it matter that the test "conversation" is between myself and another internal user?

If you look at the item in the Sent Items folder, does it have ConversationID property set (select the message, click Item button on the OuItlookSpy ribbon, select ConversationID property)?
– Dmitry Streblechenko

Yes, and it matches the conversation ID of the message to which I've replied!

I can only suggest using Items.ItemAdd event on the Sent Items folder instead of the Application.ItemSend
