Sorting Outlook email messages
Hi, I've got a piece of code that is intended to retrieve the newest email message from Outlook. I'm trying to use the Sort() function, as implemented below, but it doesn't seem to be working...

Hello,
For anyone that is interested, I was able to use the following work-around:
var inbox = NamespaceMAPI.Folders(testAccount).Folders("Inbox");
var emailItems = inbox.Items.Restrict("[Subject] = " + emailSubject);
var item = emailItems(1);
Items.Restrict() accepts a search query, and is explained in more detail here. Restrict() returns a collection, with 1 being the first index (rather than 0).
It doesn't sort my email, but it does help me search for the email in question.
I hope this helps.
