Setting the send account

[Guest]

Hi

I have a VBA macro that parses an incoming email and creates a new email ready to be sent.

I can program everything about the email except the account to use when sending and I always want to use a different account from the one the email was received through (which is the default for the email).

How can I change the 'send using' account through VBA?

Regards

There is no offcically supported way of doing that, even though you can set
a couple of named Extended MAPI properties that tell Outlook which account
it must use. In case of Exchange you can use MailItem.SentOnBehalfOfName
property (you must be explicitly given a permission to send on behalf of
that account). In case of SMTP transport, you can set a named property that
overwrites the "From" RFC822 header using Extended MAPI/CDO 1.21/Redemption:

I am a real novice and am trying to do the same thing you

are. From parsing the incoming e-mail to sending the new
one via a different account. I would really appreciate it
if you posted your code or e-mailed it to me.
