Hi all,
How do I get the complete message text for an email, including all the
boundaries etc? I've tried using .body and .htmlbody but they don't work as
I want. I want to get the entire message in the same form as it is sent.
 
You can't - Outlook simply does not store it (Exchange 2000/2003 sometimes
does).
The best you can do is try to reconstruct the original RFC822 message from
various MAPI properties programmatically. Even though to an end user it can
be made to look indistinguishable, under the hood it will be different.
