Is the open email message one that has been received? That's required for
any non-blank return value.
Your code works fine here, where are you calling it from? I put that code in
the Inspector.Activate() event handler. You should not try to run it in the
NewInspector event handler, where a weak object reference to Inspector
should not be used for much else than testing Inspector.CurrentItem.Class or
..MessageClass.
