Outlook’s “Out of Office” (OOO) feature is a wonderful tool if your mailbox is hosted on Exchange. When it’s turned on, your Exchange server sends a reply to anyone who emails you, letting them know that you are out of the office.

There’s the rub, though. It only works if you remember to turn it on before exiting Outlook and leaving your office. I can’t begin to count the number of times that I’ve been on my way out of town only to remember that I forgot to turn on OOO. Fortunately I have a mobile device that allows me to turn it on remotely. There are other ways to turn OOO on remotely (e.g. Outlook Web Access, a notebook ...

Issue. Have you ever received an email with a blank subject line? Have you ever clicked "Send" only to realize that you forgot to add a subject? It’s frustrating to receive a message with no subject. You’ve no idea what the message is about, how important it is, whether it’s a legitimate message or spam, etc. It’s even worse to send a message and forget to fill the subject in.

I need to loop through an outlook folder using a For Next loop instead of a For Each loop. I can get the For Each to work but only half the emails actually move. I have two issues I need help with.
1. I want to do my For loop backwards (step -1 in VB) and I don’t know how to do that in C#
2. oMailItem1 = oFolderIn.Items(i); doesn’t work and I don’t know the proper syntax.

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
