Question

Answer 1

You can make use of Inspectors.newInspector event which is raised when you open any outlook item in a new window. In the event handlerfor this event, you can check if the Inspector.CurrentItem type is Outlook mail and mail item has isSent as false that means it is an outlook mail item in edit/compose mode.
