How to send mail using MAPISession & MAPIMessages?

Luc_VanDyck

I need NAV to generate mails with more than one attachment, that's why I try to send mails using the MAPISession & MAPIMessages OCX.

When this code is executed, the error "The call to member Send failed. MAPIMessages returned the following message: Unspecified Failure has occurred" is displayed:

variables used:
ocxMAPISession     OCX   Microsoft MAPI Session Control, version 6.0
ocxMAPIMessages    OCX   Microsoft MAPI Messages Control, version 6.0

ocxMAPISession.SignOn;
ocxMAPIMessages.SessionID := ocxMAPISession.SessionID;
ocxMAPIMessages.Compose;
ocxMAPIMessages.RecipAddress := 'email@address.com';
ocxMAPIMessages.MsgSubject := 'Subject of mail';
ocxMAPIMessages.MsgNoteText := 'Body of mail';
ocxMAPIMessages.Send;
ocxMAPISession.SignOff;

Does anyone has a clue, why this example cannot be executed correctly? ](*,)
Outlook 2007 is used BTW.

I found a way to send mails, using automation ('Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library'.MailItem).

It would be interested to know though, why the code from my previous posting isn't working. :-k

I know it's an old topic. But why is everybody using codeunit 397 for sending email. Why not do it with ('Microsoft Outlook 12.0 Object Library'.MailItem).
