Save Mail Message: Access to the path ‘C:\Saved Emails’ is denied.

Hi @Sakshi_Jain

This happens because of wrong input for file path.

After getting outlook mail message, the result is a list of mail message (Let’s say declare it as mailList).

You can use For each item in the mailList:

Save Mail Message in the loop,
the folder path should be something like

"C:\Saved Emails\ " + item.Subject.ToString + “.msg” (please remove the space after Saved Emails, somehow it won’t appear as \ if I dont have a space after it)

which will save one or multiple mails.

Note that if it is a forwarded mail which may appear as “FW: xxx” in the subject. In this case, item.Subject.ToString should be replaced by item.Subject.Replace(“:”,“”).ToString since “:” is not supported in name format.
