XCLN: Simple MAPI Not Supported Running as a Service with Exchange Server 4.0 (150052)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q150052

SUMMARY

Microsoft Exchange does not support running Simple Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) applications that were developed to run as a service on Windows NT.

MORE INFORMATION

All MAPI applications require a profile to create a session on Microsoft Exchange. Extended MAPI is suggested as a solution because the Application Programming Interface (API) contains tools to create profiles and allow login from a service.

For more information concerning the MAPI 1.0 interface, please refer to the Win32 SDK.
