How to set property .MsgOrigAddress of class MS_Message (MSMAPI32)?

[Fabmoda]

I've write a vfp procedure that send a mail using classes of MSMAPI32.OCX. It works correctly but when I try to force the value of the property MsgOrigAddress (of the class MS_Message) it returns me an error:

"the property is read-only"

any suggestion?

tnx a lot

Thats because it is read only.

You're looking at a property of the currently read message specified by .msgindex. You're not composing a new message, and even when you are, use the .RecipIndex and .RecipDisplayName to set the message recipients.

Of course, I know that .RecipIndex and .RecipDisplayName set the message recipients but I need to force the ORIGIN ADDRESS. I need to specify the address of the sender in order to force an address different from the one of the account that actually send the mail.

Example: suppose that bob@mail.com is the default account that send the mail (the default account of Outlook Express). I want that the recipient will read tom@mail.com as mail-sender instead of bob@mail.com (the one that send the message)


please tell me if it is possible.

Fabmoda,

No it's not possible. The messaging system will sets MsgOrigAddress property internally.

Ok I lost!
Does someone know any way to choose the account(that will send the message) during the run-time?


tnx
