That EID was almost certainly fetched as a property, but the code isn't
checking the returned property type before assuming it is a string
entryid - in your case the type will be PT_ERROR, indicating the value
holds the error reason as an integer. As Tim mentioned, that code means
the requested item wasn't found.

This worked fine for me on win7 with Outlook2k7 (CDO were installed
separately), However this failed to work on winxp with sp2 and
outlook2k7 (with CDO installed) with following trace-back….
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\send1kMail.py", line 73,
in<module>
SendEMAPIMail(SendSubject, SendMessage, SendTo,
MAPIProfile=MAPIProfile)

in SendEMAPIMail
outboxfolder = msgstore.OpenEntry(eid,None,mapi.MAPI_BEST_ACCESS)
TypeError: EntryID must be a string or None
Am I missing any additional components for WinXP?
The eid variable at line 27 has a value of -2147221233…
For what it's worth, that's 0x8004010F, which is MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND.
You might want to print out the "eid" that you fetched in the line
immediately preceding. Perhaps something went wrong with fetching the
outbox ID. Has Outlook 2007 actually been configured for Administrator
on this machine?
