Hello!
I want to include mail functionality to my application and so i found
the component CDO, but not a good documentation because on
microsoft.com the search finds a lot of pages, but on all i get an 404
error.

Is CDO an to old component?

I want to know something about CDO

- can CDO work without Exchange Server?
- can CDO retrieve Messages from the Inbox?
- can CDO access other folders in Outlook?
- can CDO access the calendar?
- can CDO access the adressbook?

An other question: Is there a way to get an Event fired from Outlook,
that a new mail is there?

Thanks for Help, if someone knows a good website for CDO, like a
Reference and some samples please post.

Greetings
Alexander Peters
 
The first question is which CDO? There are many of them.

If you try to use CDO 1.21 (the one that comes on the Office CD) you will
get security warnings trying to use that CDO's Send method. You might want
to try using CDO.SYS. See www.outlookcode.com for some information on using
CDO.SYS.
