SUMMARY
With the Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows driver, a Simple Messaging
Application Programming Interface (MAPI) application only sends mail and
does not receive mail from an asynchronous session with the postoffice
called, regardless of whether or not the Mail Remote driver is set to
receive mail.
CAUSE
When the application closes the Simple MAPI session, the spooler begins to
shut down. The spooler checks for mail in the outbox, spools the mail to an
intermediate storage location, and begins sending the mail automatically,
without prompting for user confirmation.
The Mail Remote driver cannot control the spooler, so when the intermediate
storage location is checked for mail, an asynchronous session is started;
mail is only sent, not received.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of Microsoft
Mail Remote for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
