**Outlook enhancement ??" specification draft v1.0**
When sending messages from outlook, the message and attachment is usually saved in the Sent Items folder.
This feature can be turned off in Options, but this is limited.
We want to be able to control the following :
**Message**
Save a copy of the message or not.
Just send the message and do not save a copy.
Select folder sent message is saved to, instead of Send Items.
Offer last x folders messages were saved to for fast selection.
Pick folder (or create new) from outlook folder list.
**Attachments**
Option to not save attachment with saved message.
Append message with standard text “attachments were not saved…??
Option to save attachments to file system.
Offer last x file system folder to save in, for fast selection
Pick folder (or create new) from file system.
Append message with test “attachments were saved ??
**Preferences for this addin**
Define number of recently used outlook folders to remember.
Define number of recently used file system folders to remember.
Define standard text for not saving attachments.
Define standard text for saving attachments.
Standard texts must be able to use following tokens

Standard texts should be formatted (Similar to outlook signatures)
**This solution must meet the following requirements**
Work with Outlook 2002 and Outlook 2003.
Be easy to install and uninstall.
