Only read unread emails, set to read and move to deleted folder in Web Services
I am using Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices nuget package in VB.Net. I have the following code to read data in an email, but I cannot figure out 3 things:
1. Read only unread emails
2. Set email to read after getting data from it
3. Move email to deleted folder
Could you please help? Thank you.
Code:
Dim serverURI As New Uri("https://corpmail.....com/ews/exchange.asmx")
Dim exch As New Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeService()
exch.Url = serverURI
exch.UseDefaultCredentials = False
exch.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domain")
Dim iv As ItemView = New ItemView(999)
iv.Traversal = ItemTraversal.Shallow
Dim inboxItems As FindItemsResults(Of Item) = Nothing
inboxItems = exch.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, iv)
'Dim Count As Integer = inboxItems.Count
For Each i As Item In inboxItems
MsgBox("this is" & i.Subject)
Next

Re: Only read unread emails, set to read and move to deleted folder in Web Services
i don't know exchange but did some Outlook scripting many years ago. i guess the concept is similar.
your exch.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, iv) will most likely get a list of all mails in the inbox and i guess you cant do the filtering for unread there. but that is not an issue as your "i As Item" in the loop will have a property like "i.IsRead" that will tell you if the item was already opened. it most likely will also have a "i.MoveTo(NewFolder)" method or there is a "SomeParentObject.MoveItem(i,ToFolder)" method.
lets see:

turns out your "i as Item" is a "i as EmailMessage"

Re: Only read unread emails, set to read and move to deleted folder in Web Services
Hi, you definitely put me on the right path and I highly appreciated it. I was able to the read an email and get its subject and the from. Although, I am having troubles to find a way to read its body. I found four different ways of doing it but they all give me the same result, that is the text is like this:
Code:
<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2004/12/omml" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
........ MORE HTML
Which it looks like it gives me the html of the email.
How can I just get the text in the body of the email? What would be the code for that?
This is the code I have with the four approaches I tried:
Code:
Dim iv As ItemView = New ItemView(999)
iv.Traversal = ItemTraversal.Shallow
Dim inboxItems As FindItemsResults(Of Item) = Nothing
inboxItems = exch.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, iv)
Dim Count As Integer = inboxItems.Count
For Each i As Item In inboxItems
Dim Subject = i.Subject
Dim oMail As EmailMessage = EmailMessage.Bind(exch, i.Id)
Dim email = oMail.From.Address.ToString
'FIRST WAY TRIED
Dim body = i.Body.Text
'SECOND WAY TRIED
i.Load()
Dim bodyagain = i.Body
'THIRD WAY TRIED
Dim item As Item = Item.Bind(exch, i.Id)
Dim bodynew = item.Body.ToString
'FOURTH WAY TRIED
For Each msg As EmailMessage In inboxItems
msg.Load()
Dim bodyTry = msg.Body
Next
