Retrieving Outlook email account info

Hi all,

I need to retrieve some information (POP/SMTP server names, etc.) of a
current POP3 login email account in Outlook 2002/2003.
How may i go about achieving this?

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

You'll need to do some registry code to get to the information:

HKEY_CURRENT_US ER\Software\Mic rosoft\Internet Account Manager\Account s
And then whatever numeric keys are available

Then you have to enumerate through the key names and values to obtain the
values you're looking for.

With Classic ASP, I could just create an MSXML object then load the XML with a simple objXML.Load(Request). This would give me the XML stream, which I could then manipulate. However, using System.Xml, this is not possible - not that I have found, anyway. The InfoPath documentation...

Not sure where to post this. At runtime, we need to be able to make sure a user is running Outlook (at least 98 or higher) in order to send an email. So, if a condition is met, we need to start up outlook (if it's not running) and send an email from the logged on user's outlook account. How do we do this?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
