Hi again,
I've also tried using my_MItem = win32com.client.CastTo(my_DItem,
'MailItem'), but it doesn't work. It says "The interface name 'MailItem' does
not appear in the same library as object '<win32com.gen_py.Microsoft Outlook
11.0 Object Library._DocumentItem instance at
0x29912600>".
Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Subject: Outlook COM: how to create a MailItem from a .msg file
Hi all,
I've been writing some code to move some data into
and out of Outlook (2003 + Exchange 2003). I have some email .msg files on
our file server, and I can't seem to get them back into the Outlook object I
need, ie a MailItem. I've tried to use App.CopyFile() to (temporarily) put
the file in an OL folder. Problem is, however, this returns a DocumentItem and
not a MailItem.
Is there any way I could 'cast' this DItem into a
MItem? Apparently, OL treats it as any general document - which,
btw, shows in the view, too; it has another icon and you have to open it to
view it). Or maybe there's another way to open it; I really only need the object
in memory. Any ideas?
TIA,
g
PS: This may get
double-posted due to some subscription issues I was having earlier. Sorry for
the inconvenience.
