getting fax recepient's password

[Ara Avanesyan]

Windows 2003.
We're using FaxReceiptOptions::get_SMTPPassword function to retreive the fax
receipt's password.
It returns S_OK but always empty password is returned. I have
farQUERY_CONFIG access right. I can successfully retrieve all other rcpt
options except password. The strange thing is that when I'm using the set_
method and then immediately (in the same session) use get_ it successfully
returns the password. I've tried to set various access rights including the
ownership etc... nothing works.


What can be the cause of this???


Any help is appreciated.

You are not getting the password for security reasons. When in the same
session it is guaranteed that the user who set is the one who is wanting to
get & hence it is given properly. However when you do Refresh it's blanked
out again. This is all done for security reasons.

By the way why do you want to get the password? I can only imagine scenarios
where you want to set it.

Thanks for your reply.

I already have solution for my problem and I can now easily get the
password.

As for the scenario, it's easy: I want to send an e-mail from the name of
the user specified in the FAX service's recepient. For SMTP autentification
I need the password.

Can you please share the solution? This feature is only to enable sending
