Hey all,
I'm trying to get system modal functionality like the UAC dialog.
According to http://developex.com/blog/system-modal-back/ the thing to
do is to create and switch to a new desktop.
Therefore, I'm doing:
hDeskOld=win32service.GetThreadDesktop(win32api.GetCurrentThreadId())

Hi,
a couple of weeks ago I asked how to refresh the outlook view after having
modified a mail's properties directly using the extended MAPI. At least for the
subject of the mail there is an easy workaround:
mailitem.Subject = mailitem.Subject
will trigger a refresh of all views of the mailitem.
Hi,
according to
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc839695.aspx
writing to the PR_BODY property of a mapi message should be done more or
less like the following:
def TextToStream(mapi_object, text):
prop_id = PR_BODY_A
stream = mapi_object.OpenProperty(prop_id,

Hi,
I was very pleased to see that retrieving properties of a MAPI object yields
either a or type depending on whether the _A or _W property
was queried and entryids are always returned as bytes types. Very nice! This
makes a lot of bin2str2bin conversion and encoding/decoding code obsolete.

In Chapter 12 of "Python Programming on Win32" there is a sample code
