MAPIMessages Send

Hi there,

Does anyone know why I might get the following error whilst trying to use the Send method of a MAPIMessages control.....

Microsoft error: "The Action Could Not be Completed"
VB error: Unspecified Failure has occured [32002].

I thought it must be something wrong with my code but when I tried to run the MSDN VBMail sample program the same thing occured. My usual email program is Groupwise 5.5 and I tried running both programs with this closed down but to no avail.

Does anyone have any ideas?
Getting desperate <frustrated> here....


Thanks,

This error is usually caused when you have no fully MAPI-compliant mail client declared on the PC.

I don't know anything about Groupwise, so I can't be positive.

The required interfaces are: IMAPIProp and IMAPIContainer - if Groupwise doesn't explicitly expose them then the MAPI control will not work correctly.

It doesn't matter if your mail client is shut down - it is which mail client is declared as default- ie., if you click the MAIL>Read menu (on internet explorer) which email client comes up?

You have to change the default mail/newsreader to a MAPI-compliant one.
