Hello everybody,
I am writing a code browsing my outlook emails in order to retrieve some information according to their ReceivedTime;
outlook = actxserver('outlook.Application');
mapi = outlook.GetNamespace('mapi');
INBOX = mapi.GetDefaultFolder(6);
count = INBOX.Items.Count;
xDates=zeros(count,1);
for k=1:count
email = INBOX.Items.Item(k);
xDates(k)=datenum(email.ReceivedTime,'dd.mm.yyyy HH:MM:SS');
end
The issue is that email.ReceivedTime gives 㨸㐵1, the format seems to be not correct and its impossible to use it in Matlab.
However when I read my emails directly in Outlook the received time displays correctly.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Arnaud
