What OS are you running?  Ive read that Simple MAPI and 7 have issues while XP and most Vista seemed to play nice because of the way Outlook Express was configured.

Is this the only host email on the PC?  Is it the default mail program?

Which is the default mail program?  Ive heard that if Live isnt the default, it can mess with the MAPI functionality.

I cant find too much in the way of help about this outside of others having a similar issue.  Here is an article where someone used a hotfix to patch it up: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/windowscompatibility/thread/ff8c9af5-faca-4e53-b6eb-121e0061170f

Is it giving you any kind of error code(letters and numbers) when it tells you it cannot use MAPI?

What version of Windows Live Mail are you using?
