Monitoring incoming e mail

I have created a form in excel using VB, the form is to monitor workload and how long taks take to complete.
My department currently works from 6 inboxes and monitoring work that is coming in is a bit of a nightmare, what i would like is if an e mail comes into any one of the inboxes i then have a counter within excel sheet counting each mail that is coming into the inbox i do not want the counter deducting each time an e mail is looked at however.. can anyone help...please.....

I doubt that I can help much, but I do have a question or two
  • Are these Outlook inboxes?
  • Can you be more specific on what you want from us? Ideas for particular parts of the task? If so, which parts?
  • Which parts of the task are supposed to be automated, which parts manual?

Hi, I guess this is a MS Exchange problem. If you have Exchange running the emails you can create exchange objects in your code and mess around with anything you like

Good luck

Hi

The outboxes in question are from Outlook
I would like to have a set up where by each mail that comes into one of the inboxes is then counted in Excel so if i have 25 emails, 5 in each in each inbox i can look at excel and it will tell me that i have 5 e mails in each of the inboxes.
