programmatically send outlook email from shared mailbox

问题

I'm trying to send an email with python from a shared mailbox.

I have been able to sucessfuly send it through my own email, but sending one with a shared mailbox (that I have tested that I have access too) is giving me issues.

Code used for email script in python import win32com.client import win32com olMailItem = 0x0 obj = win32com.client.Dispatch("Outlook.Application") newMail = obj.CreateItem(olMailItem) newMail.Subject = "Python Email Test" newMail.Body = "Test" newMail.To = 'hi@hi.com' newMail.Send()

I know that below is how I can read my emails from a shared Folder. outlook = win32com.Dispatch("Outlook.Application").GetNamespace("MAPI") dir_accounts = outlook.Folders("SharedFolder")

Any ideas on how to combine these?

回答1:

In case if you have multiple accounts configured in Outlook you may use the SendUsingAccount property of the MailItem class. Or if you have sufficient privileges (rights) you may consider using the SentOnBehalfOfName property which is a string indicating the display name for the intended sender of the mail message.

Added this right before the newMail.send() step and it worked

newMail.SentOnBehalfOfName = 'SharedFolder'
