Title: MAPI and HTML Mail
Post by: JTaylor on April 11, 2019, 01:49:42 PM
I am just full of questions lately...Is there a way to send HTML mail via the MAPI extender?   Kept trying to figure out why it didn't work sometimes and sometimes it did and then I realized it never worked with MAPI but the times it did work was when I was using POSTIE.

And always the follow-up if not, can and will you add that option?   This seems like an important thing for email.

Have you considered CDO with its MAPI namespace?

Will take a look.  I know I have experimented with CDO before but do not remember much.  Thanks again.

Was just getting ready to post that link in case anyone else was interested in the question.
