hello people

 I´m  trying to get the name and address from a email account:

                    EmailAccountCollection col = session.EmailAccounts;

                    foreach (EmailAccount ea in col)
                    {
                        String add = (String)ea.Properties[AccountProperty.SenderEmailAddress];
                        String name = (String)ea.Properties[AccountProperty.SenderName];
                    }

I dont know if this way it´s right. The problem is that "add" and "name" always return null value;

Does someone knows other way to get the name and address from a email account? This way is it right?

thanks

These properties may not be present depending on the account type. For POP and IMAP these should return the values as set in the account settings. For Activesync/Exchange the sender name is not stored with the account properties.

 Hi Peter, these properties always return a null value. Do you know another way to get these propertie ?

You should also be able to retrieve the email account properties through the configuration API - Look at the EMAIL2 Configuration Service Provider for examples.

 Ok, I often use the configuration API to create a email account.

I did not know we could also ask parameters.

I find this link to query these parameters  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa456146.aspx

 Thank you Peter.

Oh, what is different between the microsoft configuration API and ITH configuration API ?
