OK, I did that with msoutlk85.olb.  I'm assuming that a message
object is of type _MailItem.  I've got a big list of properties
and methods that _might_ work, but how do you find out which
ones are implimented by a particular object?

For example, the messages in my inbox implement properties
"Subject" and "Size", but not "Body", "To", or "SenderName".
I guess I could iterate the the properties dictionary and try
all of them...
