Subject: Re: [Bug 5988] Shared events stamped as email introduce an 'Out' collection

That's a good question. Unfortunately, I don't have a dead simple answer. This is part of a larger discussion we've been having on the design list about In versus Out and sharees see shared email items.

The answer I have at the moment is:

Things should go into OUT if:
+ The user is listed in the From: field of the Item
+ The user Sent or Updated the item

(With stamping, From: doesn't always equal Sent by: and Edited by:)

Things should go into IN if:
+ The user is list in the TO: CC: or BCC: fields

This means that a single Item could appear in both IN and OUT.

The open question is: what if the user is not mentioned in any of the Addressing fields? Then what?

Brian, can I forward this to the list?

Hi Mimi,
Can you please take a look at bug 5998.


I need clarification on when a mail message should appear in the Out collection.
When it should appear in the In collection. And when it should appear in neither.


When a user shares an Out collection what does the sharee see when syncing the mail?

I am headed on vacation at the end of the week so it is important to resolve this bug sooner rather than later.

Thanks,
Brian
