Getting the representative email address of a distribution list
1
How do I get the representative email address of a distribution list (NOT the email addresses of each member in the list)?
Please refer to the following pseudo code.
Your kind help would be appreciated.
Dim Recip As Outlook.Recipient
Dim Recip_email As String
If Recip.AddressEntry.AddressEntryUserType = olExchangeUserAddressEntry Then
Recip_email = Recip.AddressEntry.GetExchangeUser.PrimarySmtpAddress
ElseIf Recip.AddressEntry.AddressEntryUserType = olSmtpAddressEntry Then
Recip_email = Recip.Address
ElseIf Recip.AddressEntry.AddressEntryUserType = olExchangeDistributionListAddressEntry Then
' Recip that is a distribution list seems to fall in this branch
' How do I get the representative email address of the group?
' Example: if the representing email address is aaa@aaa.com, Recip_email = aaa@aaa.com
Recip_email = ??????????????????????
Else
Recip_email = vbNullString
End If

What do you mean by "representative email address of a distribution list". The address of the DL itself?

Yes, the email address of the DL itself. The DL has an email address assigned to it just like a regular SMTP address. Recip_email is an SMTP address. Refer to Recip_email in the code.
