How to log into Outlook account

Is there any way in which we can log into our Outlook account throgh VB and send a mail.

Yes, add a reference to MS Outlook xx.0 Object Library and create an email. I have many many code examples on the forums already. Try a search by my user name and Outlook. ;)

I know how to send a mail through VB but it works only if Outlook is open and any user is logged on. I want to know if we can supply the userID and password through code and execute it. I was using the following code to send the mail

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim app As Outlook.Application
Dim mail As Outlook.MailItem
Set app = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set mail = app.CreateItem(olMailItem)
 
With mail
    .To = "[email protected]"
    .Subject = "Hi This is a test mail"
    .Body = "There is an error"
    '.Attachments.Add "\\server\drive\folder\filename", olByValue, 1
    .Send
End With
End Sub

Can anyone help me out.

You can log on like so...

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim app As Outlook.Application
    Dim mail As Outlook.MailItem
    Set app = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
    app.GetNamespace("MAPI").Logon "Profile", "Password", "ShowDialog", "New Session"
    Set mail = app.CreateItem(olMailItem)
    With mail
        .To = "[email protected]"
        .Subject = "Hi This is a test mail"
        .Body = "There is an error"
        '.Attachments.Add "\\server\drive\folder\filename", olByValue, 1
        .Send
    End With
End Sub
