If you need to see if the Common Mail Calls (CMC) is installed on your computer (CMC=1), you can check the [Mail] section in the WIN.INI file for the CMCDLLNAME entry to find out the name of the installed CMC DLL. Then, you can either import the library (using a C language) or access it dynamically (using Microsoft C or Microsoft Visual Basic).

MORE INFORMATION

The following is the format of the CMCDLLNAME entries:

   CMCDLLNAME=full path to file to CMC DLL file

NOTE: Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT use of WIN.INI file for backward compatibility.
