Hi Pooja,


Thanks for writing to Aspose.Email support team.

You can add user defined properties by using Headers property of MailMessage. Following is a sample code which adds two user defined properties named “UserDefinedProperty1” and “UserDefinedProperty2”. Initial values are also set for these newly added properties.

Please give a try to the following code and let us know your feedback.

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage("user01@gmail.com", "user02@gmail.com", “Subject”, “Body”);
mail.Save(“Mail.eml”, MailMessageSaveType.EmlFormat);
mail.Headers.Add(“UserDefinedProperty1”, “value01”);
mail.Headers.Add(“UserDefinedProperty2”, “value02”);
mail.Save(“Mail.eml”, MailMessageSaveType.EmlFormat);

Hi Pooja,


Following are few samples which demonstrate setting the properties for MapiMessage and MailMessage. Please give it a try a let us know your feedback.

MapiMessage mapiMsg = new MapiMessage("user1@gmail.com", "user2@gmail.com", “This is subject”, “This is body”);

//Sample 01
Guid guid = Guid.NewGuid();
mapiMsg.SetProperty(new MapiProperty(MapiPropertyTag.PR_SENDER_ADDRTYPE_W, Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(“EX”)));

//Sample 02
MapiRecipient recipientTo = mapiMsg.Recipients[0];
MapiProperty propAddressType = new MapiProperty(MapiPropertyTag.PR_RECEIVED_BY_ADDRTYPE_W, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(“MYFAX”));
recipientTo.SetProperty(propAddressType);
string faxAddress = “My Fax User@/FN=fax#/VN=voice#/CO=My Company/CI=Local”;
MapiProperty propEmailAddress = new MapiProperty(MapiPropertyTag.PR_RECEIVED_BY_EMAIL_ADDRESS_W, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(faxAddress));
recipientTo.SetProperty(propEmailAddress);

//Sample 03
mapiMsg.SetMessageFlags(MapiMessageFlags.MSGFLAG_UNSENT | MapiMessageFlags.MSGFLAG_FROMME);

//Sample 04
mapiMsg.SetProperty(new MapiProperty(MapiPropertyTag.PR_RTF_IN_SYNC, BitConverter.GetBytes((long)1)));

//Following are few sample for setting headers
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage("user01@gmail.com", "user02@gmail.com", “This is mail message subject”, “This is mail message body”);

//It will mark message as UNSENT
mail.Headers.Add(“X-Unsent”, “1”);

//Following will set the LastModified date time
mail.Headers[“LastModified”] = DateTime.Now.ToString();

//Following will set the From
mail.Headers[“From”] = "user3@gmail.com";
