Board index » Visual Studio » putting mail in outlook

Visual Studio53
i have to make a kind of mass-mailing application, but the real sending of

the messages is to the users discretion

so i just have to put messages in outlook's outbox

i have to do it with vb6 and outlook automation

if this is not the right newsgroup,please advice where i should post this

question

Try the MAPISESSION and MAPIMESSAGES controls.

MapiSession opens an outlook session, while the mapimessages is used to

manipulate the sending-reveiving of mails.

and running quickly and your code will work with other MAPI

compliant e-mail programs.



The other option is to manipulate outlook directly.



I'm always a little reserved about helping anyone with mass

mailing though (although I'm sure yours is only to people

who want the mail)

i do not have outlook installed,but outlook express,i suppose it will work

with outlook to

1 small problem, even when i disable 'warn me when a program tries to send

email on your behalf'

it disappairs

Jan

dont worry about this mass-mail program

its gone be used by a lady who has a small dog-grooming busines (+-500

clients at the moment),and she also is a dog-whisperer (i think its called

that in english)

and she will never contact more then a few clients every week

and just once a year everyone

further more i want to make sure my program does not actualy send the mail,

only puts it in the outbox

like you know, "hey i didn't shoot the guy, i only made the gun" -:)

That seems like an odd thing to do as outlook will send

what's in the outbox anyway at the interval it's configured

to. I'm wondering why you have this requirement?



Oh, re: the security warning, IIRC mapilab have an addin (I

think it's free...) for outlook. It allows you to give a

product permission to use outlook after which you won't see

the security messages anymore whenever that application uses

outlook.
