How to create my own custom action in Microsoft Outlook Rules?
In Outlook, when creating a rule in the Rules wizard, we set first the conditions and then set the actions that we choose from a list of predefined actions. Is there a way to add my own action to the existing actions programmatically?
I also see an action called custom action, when i click it it opens up a small window with an empty combobox, can i add my custom action there, and how?

It is not possible to implement a custom action using pure .NET code. You have create a native DLL. But do you really need it? I assure you, that implementing and supporting the custom action is a pretty tricky challenge.
I suggest you to create a VBA script and use "run a script" Rule Wizard action instead.
