Working with Mapi Profiles

Guest

I have two questions regarding programming with MAPI and Outlook. First of
all - when using MAPI, how does it determine which outlook profile to use?
And, can you use MAPI controls when you do not have Exchange Server running?

I have a program that is putting out the email message through MAPI - but it
is not putting in a "from" name/address. It works fine with Outlook Express.

Do you mean MAPI controls (which use Simple MAPI)? No. Extended MAPI
(C++/Delphi only) - yes.

I am wondering if there is a security option that might be affecting this
since I am accessing Outlook from another application. Is there a security
setting or option that might be affecting this that I can change?

Are you using the Microsoft MAPI Controls (MAPISession and MAPIMessages)? If
so, why aren't you using the Outlook Object Model directly (unless you are
building a MAPI client independant application)?

Regardless, please show your code so we can better assist.
