Introduction

Unified Email Client API designed to simplify integration to popular email clients, including Windows Live Mail 2011, Windows Live Mail XP, Outlook Express and Windows Mail. The API significantly reduces time for writing Windows Live Mail and Outlook Express plug-ins. A plug-in code written for an email client once, for example for Windows Live Mail, will automatically work with other supported email clients. This edition of toolkit designed for native languages with COM support, including Microsoft Visual C++, Delphi, Visual Basic 6.0, Perl and Python. While this version can be used with managed languages in Microsoft .Net environment (C#, Vb.Net, etc.) there is another edition of the API designed solely for Microsoft .Net (http://www.oeapi.com/windows-live-mail-api).
