Copy Settings Outlook Express.

Hello all,

I'm writing a program that gives a message when new email is recieved. I
want to make a auto-configure function for my program. I need to detect the
settings from Outlook Express (Password, Username, smtp-server, pop-server).
Does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks for advance,

Bjorn Braker

You could poke around in the registry at:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager\Accounts

The password appears to be encrypted so you may be out of luck on that
score. Also, I'm not sure if you can rely on the registry location being the
same for all versions of OE.
