This piece of code sends mail using the MAPI controls.
1) AXMapimessages
2) AXMapisession
This piece of code is in the initial stage. This is a way towards automating the
E-Mail client like Outlook Express. The next version will send and receive
messages. Hang on friends for my code for sending messages by Winsock.
Procedure:
To run this code you need following things:
An Email client (Like outlook express) set up on a machine. The email client
should be configured for sending and receiving email. Also correct incoming and
outgoing IP addresses on the system.
- Run the code. A small window will open with one
button.
- Enter the E-Mail id of the person to which the
message to be sent.
- Enter the subject of the mail.
- Enter the matter (Main message) of the mail.
- Click on the "Send mail" button.

General Description:
The messaging application program interface (MAPI)
controls allow you to create mail-enabled Visual Basic applications. MAPI is a
set of core system components that seamlessly connect any mail-enabled or
workgroup application to MAPI-compliant information services. For example, the
Microsoft Exchange messaging system can be connected to most private or public
e-mail systems through the use of MAPI drivers.v
