Autohotkey sending mail through ComObject

Problem: I have made a script that sends a mail through ComObject and it works like a charm when i use it as user, but not if i execute it with Task Scheduler.

What have i done? I have changed ComObjActive to ComObjCreate.

Code:

The body is correct and contains HTML text.

Myself = %AUMailAdress%
Recipient := Myself
Subject := Oi
Body := Ci
Recipient5 = Hidden@gmail.com

DocumentLocation = %SourceDir%\Tooloutput\AutoProjectsLog\Faults



olMailItem := 0
MailItem := ComObjCreate("Outlook.Application").CreateItem(olMailItem)
olFormatHTML := 2
MailItem.BodyFormat := olFormatHTML
MailItem.Subject := Subject
MailItem.HTMLBody := Body
Recipient := MailItem.Recipients.Add(Recipient)
Recipient.Type := 1 
Loop, %DocumentLocation%\*.*
MailItem.Attachments.Add(A_LoopFileLongPath)
MailItem.cc := Recipient5
MailItem.Send

  

ExitApp 
return

Issue: The following error i get when it tries to make a ComObject.

Error: 0x80080005 - Server execution failed

Line: #

---> 674: MailItem: = ComObjCreate ("Outlook.Application"). CreateItem (olMailItem)

Continuous running the script?

Solution

  • I just struggled with this about 3 hours, trying many things, including this method:

    MSDN Method | ",512"

    At the end, I just ran Outlook as administrator and all started working properly, using this code:

    outlookApp := ComObjCreate("Outlook.Application")
MailItem := outlookApp.CreateItem(0)
MailItem.Display

    System: Windows 10 x64

    Outlook 2019

    AHK 1.1.33.02 ran as administrator
