Hi - I'm using the simple Sendmail routine that's available for download
from many sites for use with Delphi - which calls the mapiSendMail routine
with code like:

result := mapiSendMail( 0, application.Handle, msg, liFlags, 0 );

The problem is that all mail sent is rejected with - we're using Outlook
2000/2002 and Exchange 2000 - the problem seemingly to be that the routine
causes the recipients e-mail 'properties' to have an E-Mail Type that's not
SMTP but is the recipients address! In other words, when I look at the
properties of the recipient - once the mail routine has failed - I get
something like the following :

Display Name : [email]davidjones (AT) thecompany (DOT) co.uk[/email]
E-Mail address : [email]davidjones (AT) thecompany (DOT) co.uk[/email]
E-Mail type : [email]davidjones (AT) thecompany (DOT) co.uk[/email]
Internet format : Send using Rich Text Format.

I can't seem to solve this.... has anyone got any great ideas or a
completely new, better way of simply sending e-mails from within a Delphi
app.

Thanks in anticipation
