Is there any way to use MAPI to send a message to check for new mail? I assumed that MAPIReadMail would do the trick, but it only pulls a message from the application that has already been downloaded. Is there any way to tell the application to check for new messages? I really do not want to have to re-invent the wheel for this problem and want to avoid having to do POP3 calls if at all possible.

Sorry, but MAPI is built around the idea that the email client receives email from the server automatically rather than having a POP3-style setup, where the mail stays on the server until the client calls to download it.
