How get the current user's own email address or check entered, using Exchange Web Services (EWS)?

I have to work with external Exchange server. How can I get the own email address or check address entered by the user (that he introduced exactly own address), using EWS? Email address is not the same as username.

    You can use ConvertId with a generic address and Exchange will then return the PrimarySMTP for that mailbox eg.

    Folder Inbox = Folder.Bind(service, WellKnownFolderName.Inbox);
AlternateId aiAlternateid = new AlternateId(IdFormat.EwsId, Inbox.Id.UniqueId, "mailbox@domain.com");
AlternateIdBase aiResponse = service.ConvertId(aiAlternateid, IdFormat.EwsId);
Console.WriteLine(((AlternateId)aiResponse).Mailbox);
