Convert MailMessage to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MailItem

Hi all,

Wondering if anyone can please share how to convert System.Net.Mail.MailMessage to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.MailItem?

The reason for the conversion is that I need to amend the Subject line of existing emails before filing them to another sub-folder in Outlook.

I am already familiar with the Alphabet activity pack (RPA Listings - Collections, Integration Packs | UiPath Marketplace), which works perfectly & is exactly what I need… but unfortunately, our client’s requirement is to use official UiPath activity packages only, so I’m stuck with having to do it the long way.

Any advice would be most welcome.

Regards,
Dan

Hi , The workaround is
Get the mail subject into a string and modify the string with amendments needed
Now use that string as Subject of that mail and save the mail

Any updates on this? In particular, the O365 activities use System.Net.Mail.Attach by default which causes messages too long error.
