Hi,

 

First, you will need Outlook to be installed and setup for the user that will execute this test and this is required to be done on all test machines.

 

For the task itself you will need to utilize Outlook COM model. Examples on VBscript:

You may either migrate and adopt provided samples to Python or search for relevant Python examples.
