Tips & Tricks:

  For some unknown reason, you need to pass lpszName as a new object, not an existing reference, otherwise you get an AccessViolationException.

Sample Code:

  MapiRecipDesc mpd = null;
  MAPIResolveName(lhSessionNull, this.Handle, new String(textbox.Text.ToCharArray()), Mapi.MAPI_DIALOG, 0, ref mpd);
