I know that this module is still in the dev stage, so I'm not terribly worried, but...

I upload and activated the Mail_API module (6.x-2.x-dev, but also tried 6.x-1.x-dev), and the Mail_API page in the administration area shows nothing but "Mail_API" at the top of the page (the title of the page).

How do I use this module?

Do you have AES module installed and mcrypt PHP library enabled?

AES yes, mcpyt no. Must have missed that in the documentation...

How do I add the mcrypt library?

That depends on your OS. The library reference is here: http://us2.php.net/mcrypt

On Ubuntu you do aptitude install php5-mcrypt. On Mac MAMP has it already installed. On Windows if you're running WAMP you can enable it.

How do I install it if I don't have access to my server's command line (the drupal installation is on a shared server at webhostingbuzz.com)?

After talking to my host, I discovered that mcrypt is already installed.

Phpinfo-

mcrypt
mcrypt support enabled
version >= 2.4.x
Supported ciphers cast-128 gost rijndael-128 twofish arcfour cast-256 loki97 rijndael-192 saferplus wake blowfish-compat des rijndael-256 serpent xtea blowfish enigma rc2 tripledes
Supported modes cbc cfb ctr ecb ncfb nofb ofb stream

mcrypt.algorithms_dir no value no value
mcrypt.modes_dir no value no value

My host also said "You can enable PHP5 in your local .htaccess file using line like:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .php4 .php3 .phtml"

But I don't think I need php5 enabled.

Anyways, since mcrypt is already enabled, what should I do to get this to work?

I have mcrypt and AES properly installed.

With this specific version of Mail API this is really happening.
