With the help of this awesome site, I've created the following code. The

only part which I can't figure out is how to insert the email address of the

sender in the

"Senders Email Address Here" area.

Sub Whitelist()

On Error Resume Next

Set ThisItem = Application.ActiveInspector.CurrentItem

Set fwdItem = ThisItem.Forward

fwdItem.To = "lmueller@company.com"

fwdItem.subject = "Whitelist"

fwdItem.HTMLBody = "<p>Please whitelist the following:</p><p></p>" &

vbCrLf & _

"Senders Email Address Here" & _

vbCrLf & fwdItem.HTMLBody

fwdItem.Send

End Sub

Can anyone help me?

Thanks so much in advance!

One post would have been enough.

You want the sender's email address from the ThisItem object?

Use ThisItem.SenderEmailAddress for that. Be aware though that if your

sender is an Exchange user in the same domain you are in (if you use

Exchange) that the result will be an Exchange DN and not an SMTP address.

Sorry about the duplicate post. When I went back to check the status and

didn't see the orginal one, I thought perhaps I didn't post it properly.

I tried your suggestion and it worked except my sender is an Exchange user.

Is there any way around this?

Also, the way I have it written, I have to have the email open for the macro

to work. Is there a way to have it work when the email is currently selected?

Thanks so much for your help. I really appreciate it!

Assuming only 1 item is selected:

Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection.Item(1) instead of the

Inspector.CurrentItem.

What Outlook version are you using? If you are using Outlook 2007 or later

you can get the SMTP address, if you are using an earlier version of Outlook

you'd need to use a different, lower level API to get that property, which

isn't exposed in Outlook 2003 or earlier.
