RE: MAPI transitioning from offline to online

[Ryan M. Keith [MSFT]]

Sounds like you need Development support all the way. Ananswer to this
question would take too much time for a newsgroup response. Call us at
1-800-936-4900 and ask for development support if you would like to pursue
this further.

>I have a MAPI client that attachs to Outlook. It allows the user to
access voicemail from Outlook. The voicemail is stored on a server that is
separate from the Exchange server.

If the voicemail server goes down my MAPI client goes into an offline
state. Unfortunately, to get back to an online state the user has to close
and restart Outlook. This is not acceptable. What I need is a way to
transition from a MAPI offline state to a MAPI online state either by
re-creating the basic objects or (better yet) getting MAPI to re-invoke
it's initialization procedures.

I can't find any documentation about this. Can anyone point me in the
proper direction?
