Hy everyone, I would like to load into Outlook a mail that I have saved on my desktop as .eml. Do you know how to do that ?

Hi Maurizia,
There should be a few different ways to accomplish what you describe, including using one of the "Utility" VBOs (such as "File Management") to interact with/open the file in Outlook, then use the Outlook VBO (or automate Outlook in another manner) to manipulate the email itself. Alternately, creating a new Object to interact with the .eml file using a code stage would be a more complex option, but could be better customized to your requirements.
So others can offer up additional suggestions, what have you tried so far and what were the results?

Hi,
thank you very much for this suggestion, at the moment I have not done anything.
My specific need is to load the email into Outlook so that it remains in that mailbox, this is because I have to transfer an email from one Outlook mailbox to another and the only way I thought possible was to download it from a mailbox, save it on the desktop and then reload it on the other box.
Do you have any other suggestion ?

You can look into the functions of the Outlook VBO on the DX (rather than the out-of-the-box Outlook VBO) to determine if there are actions that would meet your requirement here -- the new "Set Profile" action was added a few months ago and could help with switching between mailboxes within a process. Also now that your requirement is clear, others on the Community will hopefully add their suggestions as to how to specifically design a process that can do what you state by using this VBO from the DX.
Alternately, using the OotB Outlook VBO you can switch to a second profile by closing Outlook using a Terminate action from Utility - Environment VBO and reopen it by using Utility - Environment VBO with the script: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OUTLOOK.EXE" /profile "MySecondUserProfile"
