Understood, since I did not need very sophisticated code to do the bidding...
(Just something little to keep exchange busy), I've started using following
snippet which seems to be working great. Posting here for reference. Thank you
all for your time...
from win32com.client import Dispatch
import random
s=Dispatch("Mapi.Session")
random.seed('')
MessageBody = ''
for i in range (1, 10000): MessageBody += str(random.randint(0, 9))
for i in range(1,10): ##I'm gonna make this an infinite while loop
eventually....
s.Logon("Outlook")
newMsg = s.Outbox.Messages.Add("Test mail from Pythonwin32", MessageBody)
recip1 = newMsg.Recipients.Add("mapi1", "SMTP:ma...@mapi.aryaka.india")
newMsg.Send()
s.DeliverNow()
s.Logoff()
P.S. I'm still interested in making the other snippet work. Is there any known
issues with my configs?
- Exchange 2k3 on win2k3 R2 server
- CDO ver1.2.1
- Pyton 2.6.4
- pywin32 latest version
- WinXPSP2 with Office2k7

That EID was almost certainly fetched as a property, but the code isn't
checking the returned property type before assuming it is a string
entryid - in your case the type will be PT_ERROR, indicating the value
holds the error reason as an integer. As Tim mentioned, that code means
the requested item wasn't found.
HTH,
