Getting entire email message body

Question

I'm trying to get the full body contents, and I've been led down the path of having to use the makeEwsRequestAsync method in conjunction with the GetItem method from EWS:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/aa566013.aspx

Although I can use mailbox.item.itemId ton construct the GetItem XML, I don't know where to get the ChangeKey value from.  Any ideas?

(what's also odd is that the GetItem documentation doesn't include ChangeKey as a required parameter, but it certainly looks like it is required, unless I'm missing something...)

You do not need to call GetItem method with ChangeKey. Just do not even add that attribute. The return request will contain then both fields under <ItemId Id=... ChangeKey=... &>

Example:

   '<GetItem xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages"' +
   '            xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types">' +
   '            <ItemShape>' +
   '                <t:BaseShape>Default</t:BaseShape>' +
   '                <t:AdditionalProperties>' +
   '                    <t:FieldURI FieldURI="item:Body"/>' +
   '                </t:AdditionalProperties>' +
   '            </ItemShape>' +
   '            <ItemIds>' +
   '                <t:ItemId Id="' + Id + '"  />' +
   '            </ItemIds>' +
   '</GetItem>';

Good to know, thanks Anze.  I haven't had a chance to try anything so far, due to my continous problems getting a Mail App to start (most likely due to authentication confusion; see one of my other posts).
