• -p login password
• -i interactive login (prompts for profile and password)
• -r recipient(s) Multiple recipients must be separated by a semicolon (;) and must not be ambiguous in default address book.NOTE: This is an important distinction. To test, open a MAPI client such as Microsoft Outlook, and compose a new message. Enter the recipient's name and click Check Names (ALT+K). If the name is resolved to a single recipient, the alias is not ambiguous. If Check Names returns multiple addresses, the alias is considered ambiguous.

mapisend -i -r wwalker -s Interactive2
				

This prompts the user for a profile, and sends a message with a subject of "Interactive2" to wwalker with no body text.
