How to find items in Outlook inbox by from email?

This version works and finds email:

String sCriteria = "[From] = 'Sebastian Nowak'";
Outlook.Items filteredItems = inbox.Items.Restrict(sCriteria);

This version doesn't work, doesn't find any mail:

String sCriteria = "[From] = 'mymail@mydomain.com'";
Outlook.Items filteredItems = inbox.Items.Restrict(sCriteria);

How do I should search by email from which mail was sent?

Solution

  • The property you are looking for is:

    inbox.Items.Restrict("[SenderEmailAddress]='mymail@mydomain.com'");
