MailItem stream

[dorutzu]

Hi,

I was wondering if there is any way to get the whole data stream for
a mailitem, as it comes from the server, from an outlook add-in. I
don't need the fields of the mailitem (i.e. subject, body, etc), but
the whole stream that comes from the pop3 (or whaterver) server. I
know you can get, for example, the headers of the mailitem via
redemption or cdo. Is there any way to get this info I need as well?

Thanks,
Doru

You'd need to do a SMTP server sink or Exchange server sink for that. By the
time Outlook gets at an item it's a MAPI item. The only other thing
accessible is the transport message headers, which you could get at from
MAPI and then parse.

Thanks Ken for your quick answer! I was afraid it's gonna be something like that

Thanks again,
