Re: Getting message property from outlook mail item

You need to read more about the objects you're using. For eaxmple,
my $Item = $client_folder->Items;
should be
foreach my $Item (in $client_folder->Items) {

~~in is imported using use Win32::OLE qw( in );~~

Update: According to Errto,

my $Item = $client_folder->Items;
my $last_email = $Item->GetLast();
[download]

is functionally correct, but would be more accurate as

my $Items = $client_folder->Items;
my $last_email = $Items->GetLast();
[download]

or simply

my $last_email = $client_folder->Items->GetLast();
[download]

According to MSDN, `GetLast` is a method of the `Items` collection itself so there should be no need to use `in`. Granted the OP is asking for trouble by calling the Items collection `$Item` but from what I can see there's no problem in the code.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I don't understand that bit. How does it all work - the importation bit I mean?	[reply]

Replace `use Win32::OLE;` with `use Win32::OLE qw( in );` and you'll have access to the `in` function.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
