A.K.A. The Spam-o-matic. This app uses the Microsoft MAPI Controls 6.0. You must be running Outlook for this code to work. I originally used it as an automatic remailer for a web site. It has been modified to use an Access database to store e-mail addresses of 'recipients'. The program will only mail ONE message per user as is. This is great for mass mailings. Or code can be modified to mail multiple messages to a single address. Please, only do this to friends who will appreciate it! Code uses a timer so mail is sent by default only once every 10 seconds. If you're at work I would recommend NOT lowering the timer. Any questions, e-mail me. Please don't ask for new features. I will post bug fixes as necessary. --Please rate me if you like this code, it will encourage me to upload more neat apps.--

This works really nice. How about converting it to an NT Service?

When running from VB 5.0 I get the following error:
User-Defined type not defined.
It highlites the
Dim cn as ADODB.Connection line???
Also, how can I mass-mail a txt file
using your code??
This looks like it might be good if I can update program and could mass-mail
the contence of a txt file.

Magic. You need to get the latest version of ADO from Microsoft. Go to Microsoft's web-site and download mdac_typ.exe. This contains updates for all of Microsoft's data access components.
As for mass mailing a text file. Attach it to the message, extract the contents into the body of the message, or just hard code the contents.

Nice work dear. But I need a little help. I'm working on an e-mail project and I want to use MAPI Controles but I don't want Outlook or MS Exchange server to bother my application. I mean I want my application to communicate with any POP3 Server independently. Is it possible and if it is then please guide me. It'll be very nice of you.
My e-mail address is nofi@programmer.net

I have been using your code.
What I like most is that it worked right from the start, no problems.
Just a question, any ideas how I could change the code in order to send formatted mails (i.e. colour, bold etc.)
Thanks.

I get the message mail sent, but it appears that it wasn't. I get an unspecified error. How does the code know to use what server?
