OK, get to answer my own question :) - repeated here for the interest of
others
Custom actions are implemented in DLLs using COM stuff (interfaces)
The MS site has such a DLL, LAUNCHER, which will run any program specified,
passing it the message ID of the message that fired the rule. The called
program (which could be written in Delphi) could then use OLE to get the
message and process it.
I'm planning to have a custom message processor which processes a message
from a particular source and turns it into a signature for my mail messages.
