What is the "Simple MAPI" ?

Simple MAPI is a subset of 12 functions, which enable developers to add basic messaging functionality to their Windows-based applications.

It includes functions to support sending and receiving messages:

• Log onto the messaging system.
• Compose new messages, add and resolve recipients, send messages.
• Retrieve and read messages from the inbox.

The Simple MAPI functions can be called from any application that supports both making API calls as well as the structures and data-types used by Simple MAPI, such as C, C++, Visual Basic, and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).

"The MAPI controls included with Microsoft Visual Basic (versions 3 through 6), and the version of MAPI installed by Outlook Express implement Simple MAPI only."
