I am trying to use MAPI to send an email using win32com, but I get the

I first tried this having Thunderbird as my MAPI client, then installed
Windows Live Email (I want to test MAPI with one of the "newer" MS Mail
clients) and defined it as the MAPI client (Default Programs - MAPI),
still same result.

Any hints on what I am doing wrong here would be very much welcomed.

I am on Windows 7, Python 2.5.4, py2in32 build 210.

Just came accross Tim Golden's site (http://timgolden.me.uk/python/win32_how_do_i/read-my-outlook-inbox.html) and tried this:

session = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch ("MAPI.Session")

But I do get the same exception.
