This is a simple example I have put together:
=============== SimpleMAPI.py ======================
# module SimpleMAPI
from ctypes import *
FLAGS = c_ulong
LHANDLE = c_ulong
LPLHANDLE = POINTER(LHANDLE)
# Return codes
SUCCESS_SUCCESS = 0
# Recipient class
MAPI_ORIG = 0
MAPI_TO = 1
NULL = c_void_p(None)
class MapiRecipDesc(Structure):
_fields_ = [('ulReserved', c_ulong),
('ulRecipClass', c_ulong),
('lpszName', c_char_p),
('lpszAddress', c_char_p),
('ulEIDSize', c_ulong),
('lpEntryID', c_void_p),
]
lpMapiRecipDesc = POINTER(MapiRecipDesc)
class MapiFileDesc(Structure):
_fields_ = [('ulReserved', c_ulong),
('flFlags', c_ulong),
('nPosition', c_ulong),
('lpszPathName', c_char_p),
('lpszFileName', c_char_p),
('lpFileType', c_void_p),
]
lpMapiFileDesc = POINTER(MapiFileDesc)
class MapiMessage(Structure):
_fields_ = [('ulReserved', c_ulong),
('lpszSubject', c_char_p),
('lpszNoteText', c_char_p),
('lpszMessageType', c_char_p),
('lpszDateReceived', c_char_p),

('flFlags', FLAGS),
('lpOriginator', lpMapiRecipDesc), # ignored?
('nRecipCount', c_ulong),
('lpRecips', lpMapiRecipDesc),
('nFileCount', c_ulong),
('lpFiles', lpMapiFileDesc),
]
lpMapiMessage = POINTER(MapiMessage)
MAPI = windll.mapi32
MAPISendMail=MAPI.MAPISendMail
MAPISendMail.restype = c_ulong # Error code
MAPISendMail.argtypes = (LHANDLE, # lhSession
c_ulong, # ulUIParam
lpMapiMessage, # lpMessage
FLAGS, # lpFlags
c_ulong, # ulReserved
)
def SendMail(recipient, subject, body):
"""Post an e-mail message using Simple MAPI
recipient - string: address to send to
subject - string: subject header
body - string: message text
"""
recip = MapiRecipDesc(0, MAPI_TO, None, recipient, 0, None)
msg = MapiMessage(0, subject, body, None, None, None, 0,
cast(NULL, lpMapiRecipDesc), 1, pointer(recip),
0, cast(NULL, lpMapiFileDesc))
rc = MAPISendMail(0, 0, byref(msg), 0, 0)
if rc != SUCCESS_SUCCESS:
raise WindowsError, "MAPI error %i" % rc
================= Example usage =========================
import SimpleMAPI
SimpleMAPI.SendMail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]",
"The subject line"
"This is the message content.\n")
