I have 2 TMailItem object (mail 1 and mail 2)

i want copy attachments from mail 1 to mail 2

For mail1 i find this method: 


Mail1.Attachments.Item(1).SaveAsFile(filename);


but for mail 2 i find only this method: 


Mail2.Attachments.Add( filename, Mail1.Attachments.Item(1).type_,Mail1.Attachments.Item(1).Position, Mail1.Attachments.Item(1).DisplayName );

Mail2.Save();
Mail2.Display();


But I do not see the attachment.
How do I attach a file programmatically?

Hello Giancarlo,

Here's a sample code: 

procedure DoSomething(const Item: IDispatch); 
var 
ItemMail: TMailItem; 
begin 
if Item.QueryInterface(IID__MailItem, IMail) = S_OK then 
if Assigned(IMail) then 
begin 
try 
ItemMail := TMailItem.Create(nil); 
ItemMail.ConnectTo(IMail); 
...

Ok, but i use your component.
In the event 


procedure TAddInModule.adxOutlookAppEvents1ItemLoad(ASender: TObject;
  const Item: IDispatch);
var
  IMail : _MailItem;
  FMail: TMailItem;
begin
//  ShowMessage('ItemLoad');
  IMail:=nil;
  Item.QueryInterface(IID__MailItem, IMail);

  FMail := TMailItem.Create(nil);
  FMail.ConnectTo(IMail);
  ...


i have 2 different object
IMail : _MailItem;
FMail: TMailItem;

i need add attachment into this object
i think FMail.Attachments.Add()

but i don't understand how use it: 


function Add(Source: OleVariant; Type_: OleVariant; Position: OleVariant; DisplayName: OleVariant): Attachment; safecall;

The Attachments.Add method is part of the Outlook object model. The method is described at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff869553.aspx. One more example is given at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff862085.aspx.
