MAPI error "-2147467259" MAPI_E_CALL_FAILED

I have a user who wants to automate mailing to both Outlook and Outlook Express.  I figured MAPI would be a good choice.  Apparently not.  When I call "mapisendmail," the function returns "-2147467259."  As far as I can tell, I entered all valid data to the function.  I'm not an expert though.  If anyone has any tips or suggestions, I'd be very grateful.  I'm using Outlook Express 6.0, if that makes a difference.  Thanks.

Fritz,
I had a problem using MAPI myself.  I am not sure if that was the error I was getting but I used the ResolveName method before I sent the email in order for the MAPI controls to work properly.  Try that maybe it will help.  It is a Method of the Message object.
