Microsoft does ... Outlook Express can do it. It's information they keep for
internal use, though. Unsupported. Experimental. Perpetual beta-test.
Unlikely that the interface specification will ever be published.

Yes, because you can get components to retrieve email using POP3 protocol,
or send it using SMTP. Depending what version of Delphi you have, you may
already have components that can do it, and sample applications that
demonstrate their use. Otherwise, there are many 3rd-party components
available, eg Indy.
