sending mail via outlook ole

[Emma]

i am using the following code to send emails via outlook from progress. This works fine when outlook is already running. If it isn't, the code runs outlook, but doesn't send the email. If i click send i get this error:

Error occurred while accessing component property/method: SEND.
The server threw an exception.

Error code 0x80010105 sendmail d:\temp\p29814cf.ab (5890)


Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening, or how i can aleter the code to send them without the errors happening?

Thanks.

Emma.
