VB6 MAPI

[Bob Beed]

I want to be able to respond to a received email by sending 7 emails. This
is not possible using Outlook express message rules I am therefore trying to
use VB 6 MAPI.

I have managed to get it to work but occasionally 2 or 3 of my reply emails
seem to get stuck in the outlook express Outbox.

It is almost as if the VB6 is too fast for Outlook Express. I have tried
putting a delay into my VB6 routine but with limited success.

1. Is there a protocol I should be using to check if Outlook express has
sent my messages from the Outbox?
2. Is it possible to bypass the Outbox?

Thanks
