Using Simple MAPI with MS Outlook 2007

[tomer.ha at gmail.com]

Hi there,

I'd like to send emails from a Python program using Simple MAPI. I've
tried this code: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-December/298066.html
and it works well with Outlook Express 6 and Thunderbird 1.5, but it
doens't work at all with Microsoft Outlook 2007. I keep getting this
message: "WindowsError: MAPI error 2".

I don't want to use Extended MAPI because it doesn't support
thunderbird not OE. Therefore, Simple MAPI is the only option for me.

So, what did I miss here?
