>Hello
>
>I am trying to write a class module that someone can reference in their applications to E-Mail it.
>
>I downloaded a sample application that I found on the Internet that uses the MAPI controls that come with Visual Basic 5.0.
>
>In my class module, I have a method called Logon, where the user will pass in their Username and Password which I believe is the same username and password that you use to get you E-Mail with.
>
>I set the username and password properties of the MAPI session control
>and then invoke the SignOn method to create a session that I can use to send and recieve E-Mail messages.
>
>When I do this, a dialog box displays stating that the Profile name is not valid, and to enter in a valid Profile name.
>
>When I click OK, I am then prompted to select a profile, the default being
>'Microsoft Outlook Internet Settings'.
>
>What is going on here? all I am trying to do is logon so that I can create a session so that I can send out E-Mail.
>
>What exactly is a profile, is it a user profile?, or is it a profile that is specific the the E-Mail system that is being used.
>
>Here at work we are using SMTP for sending out E-Mails, and POP3 for recieving E-Mails.
>
>So, since we are using the internet for sending and recieving out E-Mail messages can I still use the MAPI controls, or should I use the winsock control
>to send and recieve e-mail messages via the internet.
>
>Thank You
