Where is MAPIInitialize?

i'm trying find any documentation on Extended MAPI. i can't figure out if it
is a set of functions, or a COM Object, or a dll, or script, or a set of
helper functions. i can't find any code samples.

So i start with the fact that supposedly you have to call "MAPIInitialize"
before you can use MAPI. This API call doesn't come with Delphi, it's not
documented in the MSDN, it's not in Jedi API Library. There is a mapi.pas
with Delphi, but it doesn't contain MAPIInitialize, or any COM Objects.

For an API that has been around since 1994, it's not very mature. Or maybe
that's why; it was Microsoft's first attempt at an API - besides Windows
itself.
