Context Menu [only]

Hi there,

Is it possible to only add a extra item in the context menu when the user
right clicks on an email. For example, when the user right click on a folder,
not to show the extra item added to the context.

If so, is it possible to advise me in the right directions?

Many Thanks.

Regards,
Pjerling

Before adding the item, check what already exists on the context menu. For a
folder there're other items than for an e-mail. And if more than one e-mail
is selected the menu looks different again.

I never tested if that's reliable in every situation. You might check that
yourself.
