Email Body

I have been asked to extract the mail from an outlook account problematically.

I have go so far but what I am getting is the entire email's trail. Is there a means to get this information.

private void btnAddToSupportCall_Click(Office.CommandBarButton ctrl, ref bool cancel)
{
    string delimeter = "x###x";
    var emailAddress = this.Application.ActiveExplorer().Session.CurrentUser.AddressEntry.GetExchangeUser().PrimarySmtpAddress;

    Outlook.MailItem mailItem = Inspector.CurrentItem as Outlook.MailItem;
    string str = mailItem.SenderName + delimeter + mailItem.SenderEmailAddress + delimeter + mailItem.Subject + delimeter + mailItem.Body + delimeter + mailItem.ReceivedTime.Date.ToShortDateString() + delimeter + mailItem.ReceivedTime.ToShortTimeString();
    new FormAddEmailToSupportCall(str, delimeter, emailAddress).ShowDialog();
}

Hard to read what you actually mean.
Do you mean you want the internet headers of that email?

Hi Kimputer
To clarify one of my colleagues asked me for a favour and then I used a spell checked without checking. The the original should read.

I spoke to her again and what she wanted was to connect to an exchange server under a specific account and extract on arrival the last part of an email's chain. The code above is what was sent to me by her. I am hoping some has done this sort of thing before and has a bit of stock code they could share.

Kind regards
