Outlook VBA rule setting

[fahadakbar]

Hello,

I need help in setting a rule in Outlook through VBA.

I want to create a rule so that when an email arrives

1) from a specific person , say Adam@abc.com
2) specific subject , say hello
3) arrives with in workdays of the week (Monday to Friday)

then

Start an application (.exe file on c drive)

I can do all this by using "rules" option, except the timing condition (3rd , Monday-Friday)
so i need a vba code that can do the entire thing

Thank you so much for the help !

Re: VBA rule setting

Maybe create 2 mail rules

1) That adds a category to the mails as they come in based on the content in the header, e.g. if Mon Or Tue Or Wed or Thu or Fri then add category "Run Application"

then run;
2) Run application for all mails in inbox with "Run Application" as there mail category if its from Adam@abc.com and has the subject you specify
