I am developing an Outlook plug-in with which I want to prefill From, To or BCC fields when a new mail item is created. Can you point me to the event that I can use to do that and on which object. Thank you.

Latch onto the
Inspectors.NewInspectorto capture when new message items are opened. To determine if the message is in compose versus read mode checkMailItem.Sent. To prefill the fields, you can easily access the properties withOutlook.MailIteminterface.This should be a good jump-start for you, but you really should read the Outlook Object Model overview to better understand plugin integration.
