Summary
Custom Activity to: Send emails from shared mailboxes, add dynamically attachments and chase emails from MS Outlook.
Overview
Overview
A lot of companies have shared mailboxes to follow up mails (like support teams, helpdesks,…). This component allows you to send mails directly from these mailboxes. Adding attachments in a dynamic way is very handy for mail merge applications and once the mail is send it can be automatically be placed in a folder of your choice to keep track of the mails send by the robot.
Chasing mails is a nice activity to follow up mails that should be replied within a certain time period.

Features
1. The send mail activity starts from your active outlook client and create an email (mailItem). This is similar to the standard 'send outlook mail message'. I added the feature of adding a collection of attachments to the mail as well as the possibility to send from a shared mailbox (like a company helpdesk account [link](https://www.sherweb.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/Outlook-Shared-Mailboxes-How-to-Use-and-Configure-Them-Delegate-Access-Data-File-Properties.png)). I know you can also do this using the smtp component, but in a lot of companies the business users are not allowed to send directly using the smtp server due to security policies. /li> 2. The split replied unreplied mails activity starts from a mail folder from which you want a list of mails that are replied yet and the once that still waits on a reply. You can prefilter using a time parameter that allows you to give the receiver some time before you expect a reply.
