I'm developing an Outlook Add-in with VSTO (C#).
When I try to get the email address of the current user, I retrieve a string
like this that represents the email address:

/o=ORGANIZATION/ou=Sede/cn=Recipients/cn=USERNAME

What can I do to retrieve the smtp address from this exchange address?

Thank you!

What version or versions of Outlook are you supporting?

You can't use the Outlook object model for that. You'd have to use an
alternate API. However, CDO 1.21 and Extended MAPI aren't supported for .NET
use and Extended MAPI is C++ or Delphi only anyway.

See http://www.outlookcode.com/threads.aspx?forumid=5&messageid=18752 for
some additional information and links to getting the SMTP address from the
Exchange distinguished name.
