Jon,
If this were the standard dll, then I would say that something about the
ODBC configuration is not correct and that is the cause of the error message
you are seeing in IMail Admin. Since your dll is an unknown, may I suggest
you use the standard one (assuming you can with the DB you are using) and
see if you can get that working. Then you can use what you learn from that,
to use with your dll.
Happy Holidays!
Daniel Donnelly
