How to send email in outlook outputting the email address

Here is the scenario.

 

Title: Biometrics checking and email notification 

 

I'm creating this automation to check my biometrics in daily basis. This automation should be running on each PC in the office.

If something missing on my time in/ out, it should be automatically sending email (actually sending email to my self).

I want to be my email address automatically outputted (no input) maybe by using outlook system's function to output the PC owner's email address. Also, currently I'm using the Sending email through outlook or send email Actions but no luck (tried instead the Windows log on but Outlook does not accept it maybe it should be the actual email address (name). Will also be nice if you can include the other info like SMTP server to be identified. 

 

So, in Sending email through outlook or send email Actions, email address should be outputted first and then as input/variable in the Actions on sending email.

 

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

    Something like this, I tried to use this action Run VBScript but when I run this script there was no output. Can you check what's missing or mistake? By the way, this code is correct when you run in the Excel VBA. It outputs this xxxx@test.com (email address of currently logged-in user) in Outlook.
