Issues Loading ExMAPI32.dll Directly

In a previous article , I noted that you could load exmapi32.dll directly and bypass the MAPI Stub Library. Good idea in theory, except for the bug. One of the things that happens when you change the name of a binary is you break anything that depended

Pre Vista Fix MAPI Download No Longer Available

This is a follow up to Pre Vista Fix MAPI Download Still Available . As promised, we kept the old pre-Vista fix up until August 15th, then we took it down. I didn't note this earlier because: I was at the beach and beach trumps blog. There was an error

Pre Vista Fix MAPI Download Still Available

Sorry for not posting this sooner - I just found out about it today. As I noted previously , we recently fixed the MAPI download to work on Vista and Windows Server 2008. This broke some ISVs who weren't expecting Exchange's MAPI to use the MAPI stub

MAPI Download And the EnumProtocols Bug

The latest MAPI download has an interesting fix in it. Prior to this fix, if you used Exchange's MAPI to connect to Exchange 2007 running on Windows Server 2008 you might crash when you release your message store. If Exchange was running on Windows Server

MAPI And The Current Directory

In a comment on my post about the MAPI download working with Vista, JP pointed out that something in the updated DLLs is changing the current working directory. I got a chance to look at this today and here is what I found: this is the MAPI Stub 's doing.

This Just In: MAPI and Windows Server 2008 Now Get Along

The MAPI/CDO download package now works on Windows Server 2008 and Vista. The main blocker to getting this to work was the fact that in Windows Server 2008 and Vista, mapi32.dll was marked as a system file. Any attempt to replace it would be blocked or

A Brief History Of MFCMAPI

As promised, though a bit late, here are the change lists I put together for a couple of versions of MFCMAPI, along with a history lesson. Versions 1-3 of MFCMAPI were essentially toys, built as I learned what could be done with MAPI. I can't even find

Simple MAPI and Vista

It's just a day of cool fixes. For months now, people have been bugging me about the fact that MAPIFindNext doesn't work in Vista . I knew we had a fix in the works, but I wasn't able to give any more details than that. Well, the wait is over - this issue

Whodathunkit?

I managed to waste half a morning figuring out something I'm supposed to already know. Dev asked if I could confirm that MrXP works with Outlook 2007 so we can include it in some upcoming documentation. Sure thing. First step is to install it right? Here's

Preview Handlers in Outlook 2007
