TurboPower had an OfficePartner library to allow Delphi programmers to access Microsoft Outlook information. But a long time ago (before the year 2000, IIRC) TurboPower stopped OfficePartner development together with its other libraries and made everything public domain.
I'm using a couple of these abandoned libraries (like AsyncPro, SysTools and Orpheus) and am very happy with them. But unlike these I didn't manage to install OfficePartner under Delphi XE8. It looks like the files from the latest release on SourceForge (1.64) date back from Delphi 7 days in 2003. It's hardly surprising that the runtime package won't compile anymore under XE8.
Has there still been worked on OfficePartner in recent years, in a SourceForge fork, or has the project completely been abandoned?

Answer 1

You can simply import the Outlook Object Model type library (Component | Import Component | Import a Type library) and use its various objects.
What exactly are you trying to do that OOM does not directly support?

Answer 2

You can Use Ole Api
I Have Done Sending Email With Ole Api And OutLook before
Outlook := GetActiveOleObject('Outlook.Application');
NmSpace := Outlook.GetNamespace('MAPI');
NmSpace.Logon('', '', False, False);
Outlook.ActiveExplorer().CurrentFolder = 'inBox';
Outlook.ActiveExplorer().CurrentFolder.Display();
