Yup.

Yes, you can, though I don't know the benefit of doing that.

I have no idea. My best guess is the /INSTALLMAPI switch simply
copies itself into the system directory assuming you don't have mapi
support (from anybody) installed at all, which could be wrong (i.e.,
in fact one already has mapi support installed) and TB's mapi
installation killed the old one regardless.

IOW, TB's TBMAPI.DLL *should* work with the original MAPI support in
the system and make itself available as the mapi server of choice,
AND the /INSTALLMAPI switch really shouldn't be used when there's
already MS mapi32.dll in the system.

Your experience (and Curtis' and maybe some others) suggests it's
not working sometimes, and that should the kinks RIT needs to work
out.
