email created with VB won't send

I have an application, written in VB6, that attempts to use MAPI to send an

email (BCC) to a small number (typically 30-40) recipients. Here is the code:

MAPISession.DownLoadMail = False

MAPISession.SignOn

MAPIMessages.SessionID = MAPISession.SessionID

MAPIMessages.Compose

MAPIMessages.MsgSubject = Subject

MAPIMessages.MsgType = "SMTP"

MAPIMessages.MsgNoteText = .tbIntro.Text & Paragraph & MessageText

For Each strAddress In .Addresses

MAPIMessages.RecipIndex = MAPIMessages.RecipCount

MAPIMessages.RecipType = mapBccList

MAPIMessages.RecipAddress = strAddress

MAPIMessages.RecipDisplayName = strAddress

Next strAddress

MAPIMessages.Send True

MAPISession.SignOff

On the face of it, this seems to work. The email appears in Outlook's out

box. The problem is Outlook won't send it. If I click Send/Receive in Outlook

(2003), all the other mail items get sent but the one created by my VB app

just sits there.

If I create a new email in Outlook, copy and paste the text, subject and

recipients from the "stuck" mail into the new one, the new one gets sent OK

so clearly there's nothing wrong with the recipient list itself but there's

something subtly wrong with the email I created. Have I missed something? Any

suggestions what might be wrong with my email causing Outlook to refuse to

send it?

Regards

Keith

That looks like CDOSys or CDOEX or some other API (not the Outlook related

CDO 1.21). There's almost no expertise in that here. My suggestion would be

to use the Outlook object model and do things right so Outlook gets a

properly formatted message.
