senderemailaddress

[Guest]

In Outlook2003 it is possible to retrieve the email address of the sender of
an email by using the property SenderEmailAddress. I am trying to find a
similar property in Outlook2000. I know there is a property SenderName but
this gives you only the name of the sender of the email.

Is there a property in Outlook2000 which retrieves the email address of the
sender of an email ?

Thanks in advance.

In versions before Outlook 2003, there is no Outlook property that returns the sender's email address. You can either use CDO (or Redemption to avoid security prompts -- http://www.dimastr.com/redemption/) to get the From address or use Outlook to get the Reply To address. Sample code at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getsenderaddy.htm

To get the SMTP address from an Exchange sender or recipient in versions before Outlook 2007, use CDO or, to avoid security prompts, Redemption and the PR_EMAIL (&H39FE001E) MAPI property to obtain the SMTP address from the AddressEntry object. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/getsenderaddy.htm#redemption and http://www.cdolive.com/cdo5.htm#EMailAddressOfSender for examples.
