    Problem with sending mail

    I'm using VB5 Sp3 and Outlook 2000
    The code at the end of this message sends an e-mail message and works fine
    on my machine.
    I gave the program to a co-worker to work on and the program sent the mail
    through outlook, but she immeadeatly recieved an undeliverable mail message.

    Why would this work on my machine, but not hers? Any help would be greatly
    appriecated.

    TIA,
    ~Zoe

    'collect correct e-mail address to send
    Brad = "Select email from emails where area = '" & txtHall.Text & "'"
    Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(Brad)
    rs.MoveFirst
    rs.MoveLast
    address = rs![email]

    letter = letter & "room " & txtRoom.Text & " of "
    End If
    letter = letter & txtHall.Text & " has been completed."

    Re: Problem with sending mail

    If you are using resolveall, I assume you are using their name, not their
    address. Is that entry in her addressbook?
