5719.0. "help with MAPI code in the web" by PSDV::ICE_CHICO () Wed Feb 19 1997 11:10

Hi,

 I have a WEB application one of the options is to send mail from a server to 
 users. I'm using Windows NT V4.0, ASP (Active Server Pages), 
 IIS (Internet Information System), VisualScript and I created an OLE DLL file 
 using Visual Basic V4.0  and the system controls MAPISession, MAPIMessage to
 send the mail. The problem the I'm having is the went the application wants to
 do a signon it gets a error = 3 or  Login has failed.

 
   +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    Here are the lines of code use to sign in: 
 
    'Set the session username and password to nulls

    Form1.MapiSess.UserName = ""
    Form1.MapiSess.Password = ""


    'Open up a MAPI session

    Form1.MapiSess.Action = mapSignOn


   +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

  Any help or pointers on how to do a MAPI session sign on in the web even if
  you use different tools will be appreciated 

                                             Thanks!
                                                     Chico

 Note: The code works nice on a application no using the WEB.

	I would look at the context you are running the server under. My guess (and honestly, that is all it is) is the logon is failing when run under the context of the server, but works when run under the context of a user - i.e. what account is trying to establish the MAPI session when it is run from an active server page? Hope this helps. Kenneth Chenis Multivendor Systems Engineering
