The action checks number of items in Outbox (using VB in code stage) and waits until the Outbox is empty (or the given time is elapsed, to avoid infinite loop).

I need to send a couple of mails with attachments. I do it in a loop. After the loop is finished I close Outlook. The problem is that the mails don€™t get sent because the outlook closes right after the loop. If I leave the Outlook open, the mails are sent correctly, but I need to close the outlook. How can I check whether send/receive in Outlook is completed? Thanks.

The reason why I asked is the retrieving and sending emails directly from the MS Exchange is so much more efficient and faster... you will not need a significant sleep stage either. Read the User guide to MAPIEx thanks Mike Fri, 24 Nov 2017 02:23:00 GMT https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Send-Receive-Outlook-mail-box/m-p/58421#M12261 MikeHiggs 2017-11-24T02:23:00Z
