Answer 1

What API are you using? If it is Outlook Object Model, you can use MailItem.PropertyAccessor.GetProperty : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb207521(v=office.12).aspx .

You tagged your question as "MAPI", but keep in mind that you cannot use Extended MAPI directly in Java, but you can use (through Jacob) a COM wrapper such as Redemption . Its RDO family of objects is an Extended MAPI wrapper that can be used without Outlook Object Model, both in a regular app and in a service (OOM cannot be used in a service).
