Implements
UI.ShowMailItem(String, String, String, String, String)
Remarks
After the e-mail message is created, the default e-mail editor will display the e-mail message; users can then inspect and edit the e-mail message before sending it. The ShowMailItem method will return an error if no e-mail editing program is available.
Note
The ShowMailItem method does not send the e-mail messages it creates; users must manually send the e-mail messages.
You can also use the MailEnvelopeObject object or EmailAdapterObject object to programmatically create e-mail messages.
Examples
In the following example, the ShowMailItem method of the UIObject object is used to create a custom e-mail message:
thisXDocument.UI.ShowMailItem("someone@example.com", "", "", "Updated Form", "Here is the updated form that you requested.");
