Getting body with _OL_ItemFind

[Totochu]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to get an email body with outlookex.au3:

_OL_ItemFind($oOL, $mailboxName, $olMail, "", "", "", "Body")

It is working great, but as I use the result in a notepad, all the pictures are replaced by links.

How can I get the body without any picture? The email is in HTML format.

I tried to find a way to convert the email in Text format before getting the body but I couldn't.

Is there another way to do it?

Thanks a lot for any help!

Welcome to Autoit and the forum!

You could use a Regular Expression to remove the Links. Please have a look at StringRegExpReplace.

Hi Water, thanks for your reply and your welcome!

I've checked StringRegExpReplace which is a great function.

But here the problem: if I have "normal" links in my email? How can I know which link is part of the body and which one is from a picture? They look the same.

The bad thing is when you have a signature with loads of picture, you will get loads of long links instead.

So maybe just a function to get the body without signature?

Thanks!

Can’t you just filter out img tags?

A signature is just a part of the body.
There is no way determine where the body text ends and the signature starts.
