Use Redemption to get sender's email address

[BVM]

Hi:

I can get recipient's email by using Redemption:

Redemption.MAPIUtils utils = new Redemption.MAPIUtils();

utils.MAPIOBJECT = this.Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT;

int PrSMTPAddress = 0x39FE001E;

string AddresseeEmail = (string)utils.HrGetOneProp(mail.Recipients[1].AddressEntry.MAPIOBJECT, PrSMTPAddress);

Now I want to get sender's email address as well. mail.SenderEmailAddress is not always as simple as (e-mail address removed). How do I get the sender address? (mail is Outlook mailitem).



Thanks,



Danny Huang

Instead of using the MAPIUtils object I'd recommend using an RDOMail object
for both tasks. You need an RDOSession object for that of course but I think
that's the better approach:

Redemption.RDOSession session = new Redemption.RDOSesison;
session.MAPIOBJECT = this.Application.Session.MAPIOBJECT;

// _missing is System.Reflection.Missing.Value, olMail is the Outlook mail
item
Redemption.RDOMail _mail = session.GetMessageFromID(olMail.EntryID,
_missing, _missing);

string recipEmail = _mail.Recipients[1].AddressEntry.SMTPAddress;
string senderEmail = _mail.Sender.SMTPAddress;

Thanks, it works better.

Although that was the lazy coder way. If the code will run in a loop or
where you need to release things as needed you're better off breaking this
line with all the dot operators into component parts with explicit objects
you can deterministically release as needed:

_mail.Recipients[1].AddressEntry.SMTPAddress

You'd instantiate explicit RDORecipients, RDORecipient and RDOAddressEntry
objects.




Thanks, it works better.
