I'm trying to get the sender email address from email that is send using another email address. The sender as shows in outlook is ditribution-lists@domain.com on behalf of User Name [user.name@domain.com]. The MAPI object has a method SentOnBehalfOfName that returns "User Name" but not the email address. Does anyone know how to receive user.name@domain.com field? using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; using System.Diagnostics; using System.Reflection; namespace Helpers { internal class EmailHelper { public static string GetSenderEmailAddress(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook

in my outlook addin I want to add a button on the Ribbon so when user click this button I want to retrieve the current selected email's body , I have this code but it retrieve only the first email from the inbox because the index is 1 : Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application myApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application(); Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.NameSpace mapiNameSpace = myApp.GetNamespace("MAPI"); Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MAPIFolder myInbox = mapiNameSpace.GetDefaultFolder(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox); String body = (

I have an Outlook add-in which assigns a UserProperty to a MailItem before it is sent: Outlook.UserProperty prop = mail.UserProperties.Add("XXXX", Outlook.OlUserPropertyType.olText); prop.Value = "YYYY"; It is known (see Stop Outlook from converting HTML to RTF for example) that doing this causes the email to be sent using TNEF (ie RTF format, the dreaded winmail.dat). My question is, is it safe to simply un-set the TNEF property? The following code will do that: mail.PropertyAccessor.SetProperty("http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/id/{00062008-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/8582000B", false);

I have developed an Outlook VSTO addin. Some tasks should be made on a background thread. Typically, checking something in my local db or invoking a web request. After reading several posts, I dropped the idea of calling the Outlook Object Model (OOM) in a background thread. I have some wpf controls and I successfully managed to use the .NET 40 TPL to perform the async task and when completed to "finish" the job (i.e. accessing the UI or the OOM) in the Main VSTA Thread. To do so I use a syntax of the form: Task<SomeResult> task = Task.Factory.StartNew(()=>{ //Do long tasks that have nothing

I'm working on a Inno Setup installer for an MS Office Add-In and trying to find a way to get the version and target platform (bitness) of Excel and Outlook, preferably from the Windows Registry. Although some unofficial sources list some methods to extract version information from the Windows Registry, that information appears to be unreliable. Does anyone know if there is a reliable (and official) way to get version and platform information from the version of Office (and associated programs such Excel or Outlook) that is currently installed? Based on the answers by @Slava Ivanov and @MB. ,

I'm trying to start up a thread of mails defined by the same ID (ID needs to be a specific value equal to the one in our database). I can assign a custom internet header just fine like this: sendMail.PropertyAccessor.SetProperty("http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/string/{00020386-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}/DCPID", taskId); Where the sendMail is an olMailItem and taskId is the id needed. When this mail is sent and recieved I can get my ID with the GetProperty method but when forwarded or replied the internet header gets removed and I can't access this property anymore. Is there a way to keep

I need to include custom headers in my outgoing emails. I'm using Microsoft Outlook 2010 and SendGrid SMTP server.
