Try using the CDO.dll. It provides pretty much the same interface to Exchange e-mail as Outlook does, but it doesn't require Outlook to be running.
If you have ActivePerl installed you can look at the Win32 OLE Browser and it will list the available methods & options. You'll probably want to keep MSDN or TechNet handy, as their are certain snafus that CDO has.
