Valid from List & Label 17
List & Label supports many protocols to send e-mails like Simple MAPI, Extended MAPI (also known as XMAPI, can only be used with Microsoft Outlook) and SMTP.
The so-called Mail Proxy (cmMP??.exe/cxMP??.exe) is available for sending e-mails with List & Label from an x86 application via 64-bit Outlook or from an x64 application via 32-bit Outlook. This avoids the system-related bitness conflict between the two applications.
For List & Label versions < 21, however, the following restrictions apply. The following overview shows various possible constellations for sending e-mails:
| Application | Outlook x86 | Outlook x86 | Outlook x64 | Outlook x64 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Simple MAPI | Extended MAPI | Simple MAPI | Extended MAPI | |
| x86 application (with LL) | OK | OK | -*) | -*) |
| x64 application (with LL) | OK | -*) | OK | OK |
- These restrictions are removed when using the Mail Proxy starting with List & Label Version 21.
The SMTP protocol does not play a role here, as e-mail is sent directly by List & Label and no installed e-mail client is required. In this case, however, corresponding connection data are necessary to connect to the e-mail server to be used.
Hints:
- Further information on sending export files by e-mail using List & Label can be found in the List & Label Programmer’s Manual in chapter ‘Send Export Results via E-Mail’.
- Please also note the notes on redistributing the Mail Proxy in the Redist.txt file in the documentation directory of your List & Label installation.
- Further details regarding the MAPI email dispatch can be found in the Microsoft link below.
