Microsoft CDO 2.21 Library "CDO.DLL"
Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library "CDOSYS.DLL"
Microsoft CDO for NTS 1.2 Library "CDONTS.DLL"
I have tried first 2 dll's, I was unable to create session with any of those two - even with VB CreateObject.
(the 3'th is old one standard as you specified so I wouldn't want to use it, expecially after these two failures)
All articles in MSDN are releated to the CDO.DLL (MAPI) not CDOSYS.DLL (CDO) ro I must be blind.
"Platform SDK"->"Database and Messaging Services"->"Collaboration Data Bobjects"->"CDO Library"->"Reference"
right below "Messagind API (MAPI)"
But when you use OE to compose message OE Compose window doen't block OE Main window,
as it does block my app (all windows) when I use MAPI for composing a mail.

| You can go with MAPI if you must - and that seems to be what you've done.
| But then you will need to accept the severe limitations of that API, as well
| as the fact that MS has deprecated it.
|
| Your comparison with OE is irrelevant, as OE is not a MAPI _client_. OE does
| not use MAPI to process e-mail send/receive.
