Outlook and VB.Net: Getting the sender address of an item

[stingrae]

Hi,

I have developed a couple of really schmick wiz-bang style of apps using VB.Net and VB. My last one now takes names and addresses out of AccessDB and places them into HTML emails then sends.

The only problem I have though, is getting the email address of an email that has come in. I know how to roll through a folder reading the emails, but there is no method available for getting the actual address.

In fact, this problem has been documented on the following microsoft site:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de..._C11612730.asp

If you scroll down until you get to the heading "Getting the sender address of an item" you will see what I mean.

They also post a solution there but this uses VBA.

I am having real difficulty translating this into VB.Net. Does anybody know where a .Net version of this code can be found or is anyone able to translate?

Any help would be most appreciated.

Pirate,

thanks for your reply. from what i can see, that example only demonstrates how to send an email which i already know how to do. i can't see anywhere that it gets the sender's address.
