VBA Macro Email Sorting

[DWong136]

Hello, 

 

I've got emails which need to be saved in project folders as .msg files so others can access them. I'd like to do this in a semi-automated way. I've done basic VBA coding but mostly in excel. I just want to know if this is achievable without too much fuss. 

 

So what I want to do is to be able to receive an email in my inbox. I'll have folders to organize emails within outlook. Like this. 

 

I want to have it so when I drag the email from my inbox into the "PCI Project" (as an example) it triggers a VBA script which saves a copy as a .msg into a project folder on a network share. 

 

 

Thanks for the input and help.

Doesn't Outlook offer rules for incoming mail.  Should be able to set up a rule so that if an email shows up from a particular sender, then that email is saved in a particular folder that you designate?  I have a rule that says whenever I get an email from my brother, it goes in the trash.

 

He never writes unless he wants something.

Wouldn't be much of a hassle, however are you sure this can't be done by creating a rule in outlook?
