>Lotus is VIM compliant, not MAPI. You can download VIM libraries and sample code from Lotus' website. I will shortly be updating my MAPIMail classes to use VIM also but haven't got round to it yet (no time). There was a thread (message #322359) that gives example of sending mail via Lotus.

Thanks Nigel,

Problem is, our clients have got the impression from Lotus that Notes is MAPI compliant [the Lotus web site has technical documents with titles such as "Notes MAPI Service Provider Troubleshooting Guide and Known Issues"]. This makes us look like idiots when our software refuses to work.

I've made a note of the thread above for future reference as we may include this in another version of our software.

Thanks for your help.

Matt.
