It requires the MAPI library to be configured properly on a computer (which
does not seems to be always the case). It is not on my computer and when I
try to send a message, I get an error message:
"You don't have a Simple MAPI compatible mailer installed."
However, I have several programs on my computer that are able to correctly
connnect to my default email program (eudora) just like a MAPI call would
do. How are they doing this?
