Somehow I think you meant to say IMAP, not MAPI.

Thunderbird cannot talk MAPI. It must be IMAP. In that case, it's
easer, but you still need a lib that talks IMAP. Python has imaplib
modue that even supports SSLed connections.

I don't think so. If you go to HKLM\Software\Clients\Mail\Mozilla Thunderbird and look at their DLL key, you'll see something like this: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\mozMapi32_InUse.dll

To me, that says they include some implementation of Mapi to be compatible with Office, Adobe and whoever else uses the Send to Email menu option. IMAP has nothing to do with it. I suspect that I can have Thunderbird set up to SMTP and POP and it will behave the same way because it needs MAPI for the Send To.
