Hi,
I have a need to send out emails to all the people who are in a given
group say "HR Department". I need to be able to get all the emails
through a for loop and then as it retrieves I should send emails to
them. Can some one please help me with the code how to get the emails
out of AD.
this is what I came up with but not sure how to go about writing a for
loop to get all the emails in the given group. I am having difficulty
to send both the loginName and the group that I am interested in to
the AD in the search.Filter string.
public static string SendEmails(string loginName)
{
string Department = "HR Department"
string userName = ExtractUserName(loginName);
DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher();
search.Filter = String.Format("(SAMAccountName={0})", userName);
//search.Filter = String.Format("(SAMAccountName={FAY
ImprovmentForm})", userName);
//LdapSearcher.Filter = string.Format("(&(objectClass=user)
(department={0}))", Department);
//search.Filter = string.Format("(&(objectClass=group)
(SAMAccountName=" + Department + "))", userName);
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("samaccountname");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("givenname");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("sn");
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("mail");
SearchResult result = search.FindOne();
string samaccountname = (string)result.Properties["samaccountname"]
[0];
string givenname = (string)result.Properties["givenname"][0];
string surname = (string)result.Properties["sn"][0];
string email = (string)result.Properties["mail"][0];
if (result == null)
{
return "User doesn't Exist";
}
else
{
return "Emails sent successfully!";
}
Thanks in advance.
