no, Imail has no function for building msg body content, beyond
autoresponders and the "info manager" facility.

Whatever that is, Imail doesn't do it.

That's the area of msg content, Imail is a message delivery system.
> Where can I get further details of the API used?
There is no API for Imail, maybe after Imail7. Talk to Imail over
standard tcp/ip protocols. If you generate subscription lists from a
database, you can copy the txt file of subscriptions into the
apppropriate Imail directory and Imail process the list as if it was
created/maintained within Imail.
>Can the I integrate imail functions in C++ and VB code?
no, no API for Imail.
> Along with Cold Fusion and ASP.
You applications must communicate with Imail over SMTP or other
services the Imail provides.
