From: RickTheFixer on 29 Nov 2008 12:28 Hi everyone, I have combo system which uses both a pc and a hand held pc (Windows mobile 5. 0). On the desktop pc I can send email generated by my program. Can any tell me if it is possible on a pocket pc? I am using Visual Studio 2005 professional. Thanks Rick

On a Windows Mobile 5.0 or above device you can look at the Microsoft.PocketOutlook namespace (in .NET), or the COM based MAPI (native C / C++). This solution will send the email via an account the user has configured in the standard Pocket Outlook mail application. An alternative would be to use a third party library such as OpenNETCF's Smart Device Framework. The latest version includes a OpenNETCF.Net.Mail assembly which eliminates the need to configure a mail account (but you still need the details of a suitable SMTP server). See for example http://blog.opennetcf.com/ncowburn/2008/11/26/ANNSmartDeviceFramework23.aspx Hope this helps, Christopher Fairbairn |
