How to get own default e-mail address ?

[water]

I ran the code from post #1 and got:

Your e-mail program is >Microsoft Outlook>

Your e-mail address is >not found<

I have no domain test environment and cannot solve this issue.

If I would have a regedit export dataset of key

"HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles"

i could dig deeper. But you cannot send this data since there are passwords in it.

I'll have a look on it.

If it helps i can send you screenshots of the relevant parts by PM.

Why don't you just export the profile key from regedit and delete anything that you don't want EXIT to see?

Depending on how many accounts you have it wouldn't be hard.

EXIT could import test and delete later.

Because I don't know which data to delete. As it is all binary it is quite hard to read.

But maybe Exit can shed some light on the subject.

Yeah maybe except I did all the original research on this method...

Was playing with code for most of day to get the original script to work.

Exit improoved on it and made it more generic.

The main keys you don't want to share are any keys with PASSWORD in the name.

and if you want to look at the keys contents just double click on them in regedit. It will show you the HEX and CHAR represations of the binary data.

Anyway back to paper work.

It uses SQLite to store the profiles. Too big overhead for a rarely used mailclient.

I will not further investigate.

Didn't find any keys wiht PASSWORD in the name. Does this mean I can export and share the registry keys?

Hi Water

Looking through my keys, password is the only one that contains sensative information.

To be sure just use "regedit" and step through the keys. As you open each one you'll be able to see the contents as text and be able to make sure that their isn't something on yours that is different from the norm. I doubt their will be.

G'day Exit

It's been a while but I just revisited this code in one of my programs and wondered if you'd done any more work on it?

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I got no feedback from domain users and no feedback about other mail clients.

The code in post #1 is my valid code. If it will change, I will notify here.

I thought water was working with you on the domain side.

I've been getting a few "not found" messages just lately and was hoping you'd found them to but hadn't updated this post. So I'll add the diagnostic text box for email client again and let you know which ones have changed.

If you let me know what you need to know I maybe able to add a "log" function to send it to you.

On ward and upward.

I re-read the thread but at the moment I'm not sure what is missing or what I could test.

Can we post what needs to be done? I will then try to deliver the domain and/or Outlook part.

OK,

So I got the function and it works great. Thanks!

I looked everywhere for a description of SMPTA to no avail.

I would imagine there is a value that would give me the user's full name instead of the e-mail address.

$sAccount = $oAccount.SMTPAddress

Does anybody know where I can get info on how to get information other than the e-mail address, namely the full name?

This can be very useful to include the user's name in reports sent to administrators, and many other company wide applications.

Thank you.

[water]

Either

$sName = $oAccount.DisplayName

or

$sName = $oAccount.UserName

should return what you need.

Details can be found here.

[JailDoctor]

I tried both recommendations:

$oAccount= $oAccount.UserName

Gives me "FirstInitialLastName" all one word.

$oAccount= $oAccount.DisplayName

gives me the same e-mail address as

$sAccount = $oAccount.SMTPAddress

I tried all the Account Object Members listed in your link to no avail. I use Office 2010, so I looked for the same topic for 2010 and could not get my first and last name.

In Visual Basic for Apps I get it using this:

Sub MyName()

MsgBox CreateObject("Outlook.application").Getnamespace("MAPI").CurrentUser

End Sub

I will try as soon as I get to my Outlook account

Needs to be

MsgBox (0, "", $oOutlook.Getnamespace("MAPI").CurrentUser.Name)

[JailDoctor]

Still not working.

Here is my code:

;;~ Get full name
Dim $WhoAmI = _Get_Microsoft_Outlook_Account()
MsgBox(0,"",$WhoAmI)


Func _Get_Microsoft_Outlook_Account()
Local $bCreated = False
Global $sAccount = "not found"
Local $oClient = ObjGet("", "Outlook.Application") ; Try to connect to a running instance
If @error Then
$oClient = ObjCreate("Outlook.Application") ; No instance was running, start Outlook
$bCreated = True
EndIf
If Not @error Then
For $oAccount In $oClient.Session.Accounts
$sAccount = $oAccount.Getnamespace("MAPI").CurrentUser.Name

ExitLoop
Next
EndIf
If $bCreated Then ; If Outlook has been started by this function, logoff and close Outlook
$oClient.Session.Logoff
$oClient.Application.Quit
$oClient.Quit
$oClient = 0
EndIf
Return $sAccount
EndFunc ;==>_Get_Microsoft_Outlook_Account

Error message:

==> The requested action with this object has failed.:

$sAccount = $oAccount.Getnamespace("MAPI").CurrentUser.Name
