What do you mean with "it doesn't work in win 2000 and win xp"? Do you get
an error? I'm asking this because I have no problems with sending
MAPI-emails on Windows 2000 and Windows XP. You can retrieve operating
system information with the OS() function. Check this page on the wiki for
OS() return values: http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VFPFunctionOS~VFP

OK, did you setup a MAPI complient mail client, such as Outlook or Outlook
Express, correctly?

I think it's better if you post your code to the group so that we can take a
look at it. If you're using the MAPI active libraries (msmapi32.ocx) to send
your mail, then you need a MAPI compliant mail program, otherwise it won't
work. Outlook and Outlook Express are MAPI compliant.
