==== MAPI Functions and Groupwise (OpenInsight Specific) ====

I've been attempting to use some of the MAPI functions in OpenInsight 3.6 with Groupwise and have had no luck. Is this possible to do and if so how would I proceed to get started.

David,
I have never used GroupWise before so I cannot tell you if your problem is with your code or configuration or with GroupWise itself. What I can tell you is that GroupWise needs to be compatable with what OI2MAPI.DLL needs in order to function. Is GroupWise a server or client or does it have both? Does it use or support Microsoft Exchange? If you can get me a bit more info on what GroupWise uses or supports, that would be a help.
FYI. In OI3.5 and later with a [url=http://www.revelation.com/WEBSITE/VIPWEB.NSF/e4a32622500660198525631900091149/a4d21ebd16e6a8c8852563f70059d5aa?OpenDocument]WORKS[/url] subscription, there is an example with source code of using OI to connect to MSExchange Server to use mail functionality.
Good luck...
Blaise

In the on-line help for MAPI_Logon there is a piece of example code which you should be able to cut and paste directly into a new subroutine and compile it. If it fails it will at least provide pointers as to why.
FWIW on one of my machines I can never get these routines to work without dropping to the debugger - suspect Exchange or Outlook may be the culprit.

Thanks for the reply in response to your questions:
1. I attempted to run the demo program from the MAPILogon help topic and got back the message OIMAPI03:Login Failure.
2. Groupwise is both a Client and a Server
3. No I don't believe it uses Microsoft Exchange. I believe it provides much the same functionality and is an alternative.
Groupwise as far as I know is fully compliant to the MAPI standard
so I don't see any reason why it should not work with OI's MAPI functions or are these functions limited to Microsoft's product. If this is so why bother having standards?

David,
Do you have the MAPI library for Groupwise installed? You may need a 16-bit Groupwise client.
