IMessage->SaveMessage does not reflect Message Properties immediat

[Nikhil Sharma]

Hi,
I am facing one issue with Outlook 2003 Addin (develeoped by VSTO).
As everybody knows that Outlook object model shows security Pop-up, when we
try to access some specific properties like body, recipients ... etc of any
Message Item. So i am using MAPI (managed C++ code) to access (read/write)
these properties to supress security Popup (i don't know, whether there is
any other way to supress security Popup? if yen then please suggest).

Now when i try to set these properties using MAPI
"IMessage->SaveMessage(KEEP_OPEN_READWRITE) or
IMessage->SaveMessage(FORCE_SAVE)", these properties are not getting
reflected immediately, To see the changes in these properties i need to close
my outlook and then reopen it.
I dont know what is the solution of this problem.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Nikhil Sharma

Extended MAPI is not supported at all in managed code, including managed
C++.

Are you deriving all of your Outlook objects from the Application object
passed to you in the Startup() event?

The ways of avoiding the security are listed at

Hi Ken,
I have written half code in .NET and half code in managed C++, and i am
passing MAPIOBJECT from .NET code to C++ code and then doing all operation on
that mapi object.


But after IMessage->SaveChanges(KEEP_OPEN_READWRITE), changes are not
reflected immidiately, it takes time ! As in CDO there is one method
IMessage->Fields->Update, which updated the message immediately, is there
anything available in MAPI to do the same.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Correction :

typo : IMessage->SaveChanges(KEEP_OPEN_READWRITE) - wrong

IMessage->SaveChanges(KEEP_OPEN_READWRITE) - right

As I mentioned before, managed code is not supported for Extended MAPI.

For MAPI questions you really are best off posting in
microsoft.public.win32.programmer.messaging. That's where the Extended MAPI
experts answer questions.
