In c#, I am trying to watch for a particular email, then once I receive it, grab attachment and do something with it. I've done all this before BUT with outlook OPEN. I want to somehow do this without opening.
To access email in the past I used interop.outlook
Any ideas or things I should look into?
Thanks!!
You are going to have to use the EWS Api.
Here is the documentation

I want to open outlook client with files attached to it.
The requirement is that i want to remove some properties of the document and after properties are removed want to attach this files to outlook client.
Can anyone suggest me how to achieve this using C#.
Thanks in advance.
If I understand you,
you want to open a new email, whcih could be send by the user?
I implemented this one, and it looked like this code:
http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/165548/C-Code-snippet-to-send-an-Email-with-attachment-fr
I am writting something to auto process attachments parse them and do other types of things to them that are currently being done manually. My problem is when reading these emails they all require a response to a read receipt in outlook 2010. Most things I am seeing are ways to ask for a read receipt rather than respond to them. I saw that you can suppress them but I actually need to respond to them with a "yes this was read" essentially and cant seem to find a good way to do this.
if (tmpMsg.IsReadReceiptRequested){
//respond
}
I assume this is easy and I am just half checked out since its christmas time. Thanks
It is enough to mark message as read. Exchange server will send automatically read receipt.
An example how to mark message as read.
I have a Win Form application that does some boring accounting stuff and then sends it's data to some lucky recipients. I am using the Outlook 12.0 Interop objects and my applications environment ranges from office 2003 on XP to office 2007 on Win 7.
My issue lies with sending the corporate signature with the sent emails.
It contains two images and I would like to embed these images so they appear to be part of the body (assuming the receiving mail client supports that).
I have tried a few different methods of accomplishing this; but still no luck!
I have tried:
Extracting the html data from the signatures folder, changing the
html img tags src attribute to include 'file///'. This causes Outlook
to replace the 'file///' with 'CID' and I assumed it would also embed
the image... we should never assume :|. This is the method I found
worked best for getting the rest of the signature.
(After creating a new MailItem) - Grabbing the HTMLBody of the MailItem
and extracting the relevant part including the signature... This
didnt work due to the new MailItem object being very inconsistent
with it's signature. By that I mean sometimes the new item would
include the signature and sometimes it wouldn't! :s I cannot figure out why it is not always there, no other part of my code has changed!
I read on another post here about the GetInspector property... Apparently just calling this will do 'Some stuff' and the signature will magically appear in your mail item... NO!
Things I can't do:
I cannot (as much as i would like to) shove the images online
somewhere and point to them in the emails html.
I cannot use SMTP(It has to be through Outlook... sigh).
I am thinking that the best way seems to be my original method of messing about with the CID, but I do not really know much about what Outlook is doing in the background so I am having trouble figuring out what else I need to do to get the images sent along with the email.
Hoping someone out there has some idea about what I am doing wrong or what else I could try.
Please let me know if code would be helpful and I will post, (Most of the code tried is from this site... I just cannot find the links again and am trying to avoid making this question tooooo long).
Many thanks
This is not the most efficient or flexible solution you can use, but probably the most robust and portable. You can convert your image bitmap into plain HTML and embed that HTML in your e-mail signature.
The conversion is quite simple, you can use the utility I wrote (open source) here.
how can we check that a validated Email exist Or Not Without Sending test Email by c# codes?
we can check Validation of that email by many ways...
but what about existence?
is it possible to do that or not ?
thanks in advance
You should look at these websites. I've used a similar method to these three in the past when validating users emails for a federal website that required an authentic email address.
http://tools.email-checker.com/
http://verify-email.org/
http://www.technixupdate.com/check-whether-an-email-id-is-valid-or-not/
A mail server will usually quickly send back a response telling you if the email is valid or not, that is what you're going to be looking for.
As well, SO already has a few posts on this:
Checking if an email address exists
is one of them.
Update:
I love the existence tag...!
You could possibly use C# to run a cmd command - telnet. Then output the results to a text file and read them into to your C# app. This should help - http://www.webdigi.co.uk/blog/2009/how-to-check-if-an-email-address-exists-without-sending-an-email You will need to know the details for the mail server names though. You might be able to do this directly from C# but I have only done it through telnet.
I don't know if there's a good way to do what you're looking for, but a solution that might get you part of the way there is to ping the domain to at least make sure that exists.
Here's an MSDN link which explains how to ping from .NET:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.networkinformation.ping.aspx
You can use a Regex Validation on the form before the user submits the data. It's an inbuilt tool in Microsoft Visual Studio where you can pretty much drag and drop :)
You should be able to find it in the validation section . Regular expression Validator
I'm currently developing an add-in aimed to edit office documents stored in a codendi forge.
First problem was the read only flag on my file. A simple ‘save as’ solved that problem.
This solution was ok until I removed codendi’s cookie then instead of my file I received an error page.
What I want to do is to be able to catch an event triggered by office before it starts downloading the file. Then I can prompt the user for authentication and recreate a cookie by myself without the need for the user to open internet explorer and sign in.
Is there a way to catch an event indicating that word, excel and powerpoint are about to start a download?
Thanks in advance
I'm not sure I really understand what you want to do.
I don't think any office application actually downloads the wanted file, it is downloaded by your browser in a temporary file and therefrom opened by it.
I think that if you want to edit the file from you client, the best way would be to use the soap interface, which is part of Codendi. Have a look to
[yourforgehostname]/soap
[yourforgehostname]/soap/codendi.wsdl.php?wsdl
If you want to see the wsdl in a more readable form consider using
http://tomi.vanek.sk/index.php?page=wsdl-viewer
One of the supported API is login
Hope it helps
