Hi all (and Peter specially:) )
I am able to create the signature of a custom account programmatically
using the PR_CE_SIGNATURE and PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE properties.
So, during the installation of my .cab file in the setup process, I
create the mail account and then I start the signature process. When
ended, I can see the account and the signature properly set but if I
create a new email I cannot see the signature in the mail!!
But if I go in the mail option, I go in the page of the signature and
without changing anything I press Done, after that I can see the
signature in the mail :(

Is there anything that I miss? Is there some sort of flush() or
"StorePersistentlyAndUseIt"...
I add my code...
Thanks for help
Marco


wchar_t* setMailAccountSignature(const char* signature = NULL) {

HRESULT hr;
IMAPISession * pSession = NULL;
IMAPITable* pTable = NULL;
SRowSet* psrs = NULL;
IMsgStore* pStore = NULL;
BOOL accountFound = FALSE;
SPropValue* rgprops = NULL;
wchar_t* ret = NULL;
bool msgset = false;

// First log on to the store.
hr = MAPILogonEx (NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, &pSession);
EXIT_ON_FAILED (hr);

// Get the message stores table
hr = pSession->GetMsgStoresTable (MAPI_UNICODE, &pTable);
EXIT_ON_FAILED (hr);

hr = pTable->SetColumns((LPSPropTagArray)&Columns, 0);
EXIT_ON_FAILED(hr);


while (!msgset){
// Get a row
hr = pTable->QueryRows (1, 0, &psrs);
EXIT_ON_FAILED (hr);

// Did we hit the end of the table?
if (psrs->cRows != 1) {
break;
}
//
// the display name is the name of the account.
//
wchar_t* displayName =
psrs->aRow[0].lpProps[eePR_DISPLAY_NAME].Value.lpszW;

//
// The name of the MessageStore that we use for the own Transport
//
if (wcscmp(displayName, "MyAccount") == 0) {
accountFound = TRUE;

// Open this message store
hr = pSession->OpenMsgStore (NULL,
psrs->aRow[0].lpProps[0].Value.bin.cb,
(ENTRYID *) psrs->aRow[0].lpProps[0].Value.
bin.lpb, NULL, 0, &pStore);
EXIT_ON_FAILED (hr);

SPropValue rgprops[2] = {0};

rgprops[0].ulPropTag = PR_CE_SIGNATURE;
rgprops[0].Value.lpszW = TEXT("my Signature");

rgprops[1].ulPropTag = PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE;
rgprops[1].Value.b = true;

hr = pStore->SetProps(2, rgprops, NULL);
EXIT_ON_FAILED (hr);
}

// Clean up
MAPIFreeBuffer (rgprops);
FreeProws (psrs);

rgprops = NULL;
psrs = NULL;

RELEASE_OBJ (pStore);
}
if (accountFound == FALSE) {
LOG.error("No " PROVIDER " account found");
}
FuncExit:

MAPIFreeBuffer (rgprops);
FreeProws (psrs);

RELEASE_OBJ (pStore);
RELEASE_OBJ (pTable);
RELEASE_OBJ (pSession);

return ret;
}

Just a thought, but you could try closing the Messaging application when you
run your installer and the launching it again at the end so it will pick up
the new settings. Either send a WM_CLOSE to the main window or if that fails
terminate the tmail.exe process.

Hi, thanks for the quick reply.
I tried it but it doesn't work. I close the tmail.exe process usign also
the Windows CE process viewer but nothing changes. I re-openend the mail
several times but I cannot see the signature.
Actually I'm quite lost...

Hi,
I found the solution :)
also the property PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE_REPLY_FORWARD must be set.

rgprops[0].ulPropTag = PR_CE_SIGNATURE;
rgprops[0].Value.lpszW = (wchar_t*)sign.c_str();

rgprops[1].ulPropTag = PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE;
rgprops[1].Value.b = true;

rgprops[2].ulPropTag = PR_CE_USE_SIGNATURE_REPLY_FORWARD;
rgprops[2].Value.b = true;

hr = pStore->SetProps(3, rgprops, NULL);

Settings this one too, when I open the account for the first time and I
write an email I can see the signature properly...

Cheers and thanks
Marco
