Dear all,

At the office I use Outlook 2003 SP3.

When I answer an email the replied email will be saved in the sent mail folder. OK.

Imagine after some time I look for an received email in my Inbox (or any personal folder) and finally find it and from the icon I see that I already answered that mail. Now I quickly want to jump to my answer in the sent mail folder (or any folder in the archive).

Is there an add-on available or an simple macro to provide this functionality? I know that I can lookup relevant mails by clicking on the field that mark the mail as answered or forwarded but that is not exactly what I want and does not work for all folders...

If there is no function yet I will try to program it myself like this:
- if mail is answered, save unique item-ID in original mail
- if looking for answer then look in all folders for unique item-ID

Could that work to your opinion?

many thanks in advance!

The truth is out there... I want to believe

No there isn't. Other than setting rules.
