How to open an email in Outlook the same way as a living person?

[Cecilie_DahlSom]

​Hi, 
I am developing a process which needs to reach another Application from inside an open email. I order to do so, I need to open Outlook as a living person, find the right email and doble click  it.

I have 2 problems:
1: I am trying to spy the email I am going to open, in the UIA mode. I set the UIA Name to Dynamic since I will work with different emails. But I am not able to find neither the same email the day after I have spied it nor other emails. I think something is wrong with the attributes, but what?

2: In order to open the email, I need to doble click the mouse button. I cant find a way to do this.  I have tried to use  the action "Global Mouse Click Center twice in a Navigate stage with a "Pause after each step" at 0.1 sec. with no luck. The email just opens in preview and not completely in another window.

Do anyone have any suggestion to my problems?

Best Regards Cecilie

There is a much easier way to do this, you simply need to use the MS Outlook VBO to read the email. Once it's been read you can find the email address you need withing the string. This can all be done without actually opening outlook.
