MS Office Forum / Outlook / Programming Add-Ins / November 2005Getting From Address in Sent Items with Exchange
I am trying to get the From Address from an email in the Sent Items folder (i.e. I sent the email) while using Exchange. Does anyone have any ideas? I can get the from address if the email is in the inbox, but not if it has been sent from outlook. Thanks In Outlook 2003, you can use the MailItem.SenderEmailAddress, but note that it's subject to security prompts. In earlier versions, there is no Outlook property that returns the sender's email address. You can either use CDO (or Redemption to avoid security prompts -- http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/) to get the From address or use Outlook to get the Reply To address. Sample code at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getsenderaddy.htm To get the SMTP address from an Exchange sender or recipient, use CDO or Redemption and the PR_EMAIL (&H39FE001E) MAPI property to obtain the SMTP address from the AddressEntry object. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getsenderaddy.htm#redemption and http://www.cdolive.com/cdo5.htm#EMailAddressOfSender for examples.

Sure thanks Sue, int PR_EMAIL = 972947486; object email = safeMailItem.Sender.get_Fields(PR_EMAIL); email will be null here if looking at an email that I sent using exchange, but it will work fine to get the Sender address for an email I received.

Thanks > Sure thanks Sue, > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > >> Yes, it should work fine. Could you show a code snippet? PR_SMTP_ADDRESS is not available in the cached mode, but multivalueed PR_EMS_AB_PROXY_ADDRESSES is: PR_EMS_AB_PROXY_ADDRESSES = &H800F101E If safeMailItem.Sender.Type = "EX" Then ProxyAddresses = safeMailItem.Sender.Fields(PR_EMS_AB_PROXY_ADDRESSES) for i = LBound(ProxyAddresses) to UBound(ProxyAddresses) if Left(ProxyAddresses(i), 5) = "SMTP:" Then strAddress = Right(ProxyAddresses(i), Len(ProxyAddresses(i))-5) Exit for End If Next End If Dmitry Streblechenko (MVP) http://www.dimastr.com/ OutlookSpy - Outlook, CDO and MAPI Developer Tool\ > Sure thanks Sue, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >> Yes, it should work fine. Could you show a code snippet? Thank you Dmitry for your continued help on this. I have tried this. I am using C# so it is a little different. int PR_EMS_AB_PROXY_ADDRESSES = -2148470814; object proxy = safeMailItem.Sender.get_Fields(PR_EMS_AB_PROXY_ADDRESSES); proxy here is null. Any ideas?
