To quote from microsoft, talking about this a while ago:

"It's the sort of thing that'll mostly work. It'll work while you're
writing it. Then it'll work while you're testing it. It'll work while your
customer is evaluating it. Then as soon as the customer deploys it - BAM!
That's when it'll decide to start having problems. And Microsoft ain't
gonna help you with it, since we told you not to do it in the first place.
"

There are certainly lots of people using .Net with CDO1.21 and even
Extended MAPI, and I suspect most of them are having no problems because
of it -- but that doesn't mean they never will.
