To read emails from a specific Outlook folder in your Delphi application, you can use the following steps:
- Create an instance of the Outlook application.
- Get the namespace for the Outlook application.
- Get the default folder for the Outlook application. This will typically be the Inbox folder.
- If the folder you want to read emails from is not the default folder, you can use the
Parent
andFolders
properties to navigate to the desired folder. - Once you have the folder object for the desired folder, you can use the
Items
property to get a collection of the emails in that folder. - You can then use the
Subject
property of each email object to get the subject of the email.
GetDefaultFolder
step is unnecessary. You can assign the NameSpace's 'Outlook' folder directly. From there you can walk through the required levels using the object's Folders['some subfolder']
.
