OI MAPI - Comma-delimited addressees (OpenInsight 16-Bit Specific)

Is there some way to send a message that contains a comma-delimited list of e-mail addresses in the TO, CC, BCC fields?

I have no problem sending a single-address message via MS Outlook 2000, but as soon as I attempt a multiple-address message I get:

OIMAPI14

Unknown Recipient

It's not a problem to extract and loop if the MAPI feature is limited to one address per message (although CCs and BCCs would be troublesome).

Currently using OI 3.7.0 Outlook 2000

Thanks for the quick reply.

I tried using a semi-colon, but got the same OIMAPI14 error message.

I configured Outlook 2000 to accept ',' delimited addresses (in the Advanced Options) and it appears that OI and Outlook are linked (I'm getting Outlook's 3d party attempt to send e-mail warning message), but then it aborts with the OIMAPI14 message.

I'm using OI 3.7.0. If comma-delimited addresses works with later releases of OI, then the problem is solved.

You're using the MAPISendMail function right? If so use @vm's to delimit multiple addresses in those fields. See the online help for further details.

You're right (of course). I probably looked at that help page a dozen times. Thanks.

Now I'm trying to figure out why Outlook 2000 keeps (automatically) attaching a winmail.dat file to all of my OI-originating e-mails. I suspect that MS is looking for a flag that I'm not setting, since e-mail composed by Outlook doesn't attach the winmail file.
