js code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MsgKind)

---

The "Origin" variable outputs the contact's name.  Is it possible to get their email address instead?

Indirectly, yes it is:

JScript code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(obj,orig,msg,k) {
    var Emails = new Array();
    for(var e = new Enumerator(obj.Contacts; !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext()) {
        Emails.push(e.item().Email);
    }
}

---

The Emails array contains all email addresses. I suppose you know how to use 'em from now on?

So, that will get the email address from the contact window, yes?

The code that was posted will get ALL users emails that are participating in the conversation (aside from your own).

There is no real reliable way of doing this especially if it is a multi contact chat.

Also note that ChatWndReceiveMessage will fire when you send a message as well. This event is fired when some text is added to the History of the chat.

It will get the email addresses from ALL contacts in the chatwnd.
You can compare it to the Origin variable of the OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage function, but if for example two contacts have the same name then you could get the wrong contact.

In short, it will work, but it's not fool proof.

JScript code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(obj,orig,msg,k) {
    var Emails = new Array();
    var OriginEmail = "";
    for(var e = new Enumerator(obj.Contacts); !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext()) {
        Emails.push(e.item().Email);
        if(e.item().Name == orig)OriginEmail = e.item().Email;
    }
}

---

i guess that will work

note: it won't work with contacts that have the same name

edit: if you want to limit it to only a one-on-one conversation, just check if obj.Contacts.count == 1

Ok, thanks all!
