Refresh outlook folders after mailAdd event fires

How can I access the main form from the add in? Right now I have a reference
to the folders via the following command
Outlook.MAPIFolder me = mapiNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(
Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderOutbox ) as Outlook.MAPIFolder;

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Ken.

What main form?

Your reference is to the Outbox, however you shouldn't be messing with items
in the Outbox..

Let's say you have 2 folder references: folder A and folder B, A is the
current folder and Outlook.Application is oApp.

Outlook.Explorer exp = oApp.ActiveExplorer(); //get ActiveExplorer
exp.CurrentFolder = B;
exp.CurrentFolder = A;

That moves the focus from A to B and back again.

Ken, tks for the input.
By 'main form; I meant the current folder.
I am processing events from the inbox folder.
To solve the problem I performed the following code:

Outlook.Application oApp;
oApp= mapiNamespace.Application;
Outlook.Explorer exp = oApp.ActiveExplorer(); //get
ActiveExplorer

exp.CurrentFolder = Holdme;
exp.CurrentFolder = inbox;

of course mapiNamespace,Holdme(pointer to SendItems), and inbox were
instantiated when the dll was loaded within default constructor.

Thanks Ken for all your valued help!
