Check the LoadBehavior key value for your plugin.
If you see the registry hive for you add-in – it’s most likely to be installed correctly.
The LoadBehavior value should be 3 before you start Outlook. If it’s not, set it to 3.
If it goes to 2 when you start Outlook – it is definitely trying to run it, so it’s good news in a way.
You will need to do some diagnostics there – try instantiating your add-in from vbs
This should give you no errors.
If it doesn’t and the object is instantiated – you need to put diagnostics in your add-in.
It is being called by Outlook and your most likely to get enough control to instantiate log4net.
