I am getting my default inbox folder via inboxFolder = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderInbox
Elsewhere in my code, I begin doing a foreach loop to extract specific information I want from these MailItems
foreach (var item in this.inboxFolder.Items)
{
Outlook.MailItem mailItem = (Outlook.MailItem)item;
//.... doing stuff here
string SenderEmail = mailItem.SenderEmailAddress;
string SenderName = mailItem.SenderName;
string FolderLocation = mailItem.???; //how to retrieve folder location?
//.... more stuff here
}
For example: A user may have created a subfolder called 'Test' shown below.
Thank you for the pointer guys. However I was having some trouble implementing the same initially. Here is how I solved it, just in case if some one faces the same issue.
Outlook.MAPIFolder parentFolder = mailItemToDelete.Parent as Outlook.MAPIFolder;
string FolderLocation = parentFolder.FolderPath;
The Parent object is dynamic and hence was causing issue.
