I'm a new programmer and I've reached the point where my lack of knowledge (of the C# and VBA language) and experience is preventing me from continuing with my program. I only know Python and all the documentation that I've tried digging into is in C# and VB.
My story: I'm working on a GUI that automates and manages specialized email operations for my company using Outlook Express 2016. I've figured out that win32com is the package to use, and I've figured out how to create and send basic emails, but I'm struggling to figure out how to send emails encrypted. My company uses the McAfee SaaS Email Encryption add-in found at: http://www.mcafee.com/us/downloads/saas/encrypted-from-microsoft-outlook-addin.aspx.
Note: the site doesn't specify that this add-in is supported in the 2016 version but it indeed works. Also, the built-in Outlook option to encrypt all emails is not viable because I need some emails to not be encrypted.
What I've garnered from another similar post is that I need to use the PropertyAccessor method:
mailItem.PropertyAccessor.SetProperty(
"http://schemas.microsoft.com/mapi/proptag/0xHHHHHHHH", x);
where HHHHHHHH is some hexadecimal code and x represents a state such as 0 = off. I tried digging into some property tag documentation but I'm having trouble understanding them.
Am I on the right track? There may be a completely different + easier way of doing this. I do realize a lot of my difficulty may be due to not knowing C#/VBA, but it would be highly appreciated if someone out there can point me in the right direction.
