This article discusses about how can we access the inbox through MAPI using C# .NET. It also discusses about how to store the attachment in the local directory, how to create a folder in the inbox
Need to add the reference Microsoft CDO 1.21 Library to the project -
//Declarations
-
MAPI.Message objMsg, objMsg_Arch;
-
MAPI.Messages objMsgs;

objMsgs = (Messages)objFolder.Messages;

//To get the sender

objMsg = (MAPI.Message)(objMsgs.get_Item(intMsgLoop));

//To save the attachment to local disk
-
objAttachments = (Attachments)objMsg.Attachments;
-
objAttach = (Attachment)objAttachments.get_Item(intMsg);

if ((CdoAttachmentType)objAttach.Type == CdoAttachmentType.CdoFileData)

{

objAttach.WriteToFile(strLocalDir + objAttach.Name.ToString());

Can u pls tell me how to access rediffmail inbox using c#??
Is this missing article some essential setup details because after adding the CDO as a reference this code does not even compile let alone run

As far as I can tell, that code isn't meant to be fully functional in of itself. It is merely code snippets to be cut, pasted, and edited to fit your needs. The code in between each commented line is an example of how to accomplish the task of the preceding comment. For example, - //To delete the message from the inbox
-
objMsg.Delete(Missing.Value);
That is just an example of how to delete a message. It doesn't actually delete anything unless you set objMsg to an actual message and replace Missing.Value with the correct boolean value.

Can anybody help with the following: I have some old VB6 code that loops
through my inbox looking for emails with attachments and then save them to
the hard drive. The code is very simplistic so I thought it would be dead
easy to migrate it to C#, however it is proving more difficult than I first
thought.
The VB code is as follows:
Set oSession = CreateObject("MAPI.Session")
oSession.Logon("Outlook", , False)

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
