"TO" as recipient for the message or "TO" as email address

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

I have a mailbox (address@mydomain.com), this mailbox has some sencondary email addresses (address01@mydomain.com, address02@mydomain.com, address03@mydomain.com...)

I have a Flow which access to this mailbox and registers in a list every email, filling colums with the information of the received email.
I need to register the "TO" field as a column, I can see on the email properties:

 

Message-ID: <example@mail.gmail.com>

Subject: example

To: address02@mydomain.com

Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="000000000000d88caf05a3e1bfd8"

 

But Flow always registers the main address in the list: address@mydomain.com

 

Is Flow transforming "TO" to the ALIAS of the mailbox?

    Hi @soporte,

     

    if you wish to save the real To: address, you have to retrieve it from the SMTP headers of the message. 

    Try to execute "Export email (V2)" action to get the headers.

    Thanks a lot @VictorIvanidze, I can see the entire header now, but...how can I get just the string with the email address after "To:"?
    Really appreciate your help, thanks again.

    Hi @soporte,

     

    try to do it yourself. Parsing a text is quite a trivial task.
