MAPI Clients: Compatibility

SAP MAPI has been tested with Microsoft Windows Messaging, the Exchange client, and Microsoft Outlook. This section summarizes incompatibility issues found with some MAPI clients.

Microsoft Windows Messaging and the Exchange client

Inserting objects or links as attachments is not yet supported.

Instead, you should use the file manager to drag and drop files or select Insert ® File in Windows Messaging or the Exchange client.

Microsoft Outlook

Large-scale changes to the SAPoffice Message Store settings can affect logon profiles.

This causes the program to crash when Outlook is called. In this case, the logon profile must be deleted and a new profile created. Repeat the steps in Creating Logon Profiles .
