Outlook 2007 AddIn: Filter attachments by type
Good day,
I have an Outlook 2007 AddIn that posts attachments to a document server. The issue that that not only "real" attachments are posted, but also signatures and other images that are attached. Is there a way to filters these out? Thanks, Derick

Outlook 2007 AddIn: Filter attachments by type
You will have to use the PropertyAccessor object on each attachment to look
for properties not exposed to the object model to be sure. One property to look at is AttachmentType, if that is 6 (ATTACH_OLE) then it's an embedded attachment. If that's not 6 however it still could be an embedded attachment. It could be 1 (ATTACH_BY_VALUE) and still could be embedded. So, you have to check for PR_ATTACH_CONTENT_ID and see if it's there. If it is there it's an embedded attachment. When you get the PropertyAccessor object use its GetProperty() method with the following DASL string property tag: "urn:schemas:mailheader:content-id" -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.
