Indy won't help you to control Outlook or Outlook Express (or any other mail client). But it includes components that will allow you to perform the mail retrieval within your program, instead of leaving it to the mail reader. You should be able to get documentation from Microsoft on how to control Outlook via automation. Equivalent functionality is probably available with Outlook Express (which is actually a very different program, despite the similarity of name) but the interfaces that OE exposes are deliberately undocumented by Microsoft and intended only for internal use by Windows and other MS programs. I have seen components somewhere though (for a price) which claim to be able to control OE. As for any other mail client, maybe it includes an explicit "receive mail" command and maybe it doesn't. Maybe it provides a way that it can be controlled by another program, and maybe it doesn't. You'd need to consult the authors of each individual program you wish to interface with.
