MAIL Built-In Functions
DO NOT support Microsoft Office 64 bit.
LANSA is a 32 bit application and so it cannot interact with the ActiveX/MAPI interfaces of 64 bit office.
DO support the 32 bit installation of Office on a 64 bit machine however, and this is the default installation option.
An email message that is to be sent must be constructed commencing with a call to MAIL_START followed by other calls in the Email Handling series to add the data. The message is then sent using the MAIL_SEND call.
