Question : Sending emails on behalf of a common mail address and have the email saved in "Sent items" in the common mailbox (not my own)

I am using a routine that sends out emails from a MS Access database (see code snippet below). The database is used by 3-4 different people, who all send emails "on behalf of" a common mailbox that they have access to. However, when sending, a copy of the email is saved in "Sent items" in the OWN mailbox, not the common one. This is undesirable, because it prevents the others to see which information has been sent out.

I need to have the outgoing emails stored in the Sent Items folder on the COMMON mailbox (the name of the common mailbox is "ADE NO HR SH" - see code snippet), not each individuals private mailbox.

Can this be done ??

Answer : Sending emails on behalf of a common mail address and have the email saved in "Sent items" in the common mailbox (not my own)

When it faults, in the immediate window type:

print objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI").getdefaultfolder(6).parent.parent.folders("Postboks - ADE NO HR SH")

Depending on if that works:
print objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI").getdefaultfolder(6).parent.parent
print objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI").getdefaultfolder(6).parent
