I want to create an email color fader for outlook 2000. Does anyone know how to:

1) Get the text of an E-Mail
2) Set text to an E-Mail using different colors

I've already created a program that fades email in AOL, and I'd like to port my program to the wider audience of Outlook 2000 if possible

You can check out the program I'm trying to port here:

Thanks in advance!!
