Re: [Dev-C++] sending email

[Marco N. <th...@ti...>]

You can use a MAPI function called MAPISendMail to send mail with your
default profile in your default email client (ie Outlook Express). Remember
to link mapi32.dll to your project (-lmapi32 in linker options).


#include <windows.h>
#include <mapi.h>

int main (int argc, char **argv) {

    MapiMessage Mex;
    MapiRecipDesc To;
    ULONG res;

    To.ulReserved=0;
    To.ulRecipClass=MAPI_TO;
    To.lpszName = (LPTSTR) GlobalAlloc (GPTR, 100);
    lstrcpy (To.lpszName, "Someone");
    To.lpszAddress = (LPTSTR) GlobalAlloc (GPTR, 100);
    lstrcpy (To.lpszAddress, "so...@so...");
    To.ulEIDSize=0;
    To.lpEntryID=NULL;

    Mex.ulReserved=0;
    Mex.lpszSubject = (LPTSTR) GlobalAlloc (GPTR, 100);
    lstrcpy (Mex.lpszSubject, "Hello world!");
    Mex.lpszNoteText = (LPTSTR) GlobalAlloc (GPTR, 100);
    lstrcpy (Mex.lpszNoteText, "This is an e-mail.\n");
    Mex.lpszMessageType = NULL;
    Mex.lpszDateReceived = NULL;
    Mex.lpszConversationID = NULL;
    Mex.flFlags = 0;
    Mex.lpOriginator = NULL;
    Mex.nRecipCount = 1;
    Mex.lpRecips = &To;
    Mex.nFileCount = 0;
    Mex.lpFiles = NULL;

    res=MAPISendMail (0, 0, &Mex, MAPI_NEW_SESSION, 0);
    return 0;
}
