AIMM (Active IMM) as documented in the web workshop on MSDN is the only way
to support the IME on Japanese. It does assume you have IE 5.0 or 5.5 with
Japanese text input support installed, but it lets me type things like

日本

by <alt+shift> in Outlook Express, which also supports AIMM. (Hopefully the
above made it through for a msg with UTF-8 encoding. :-)

You can see the following link:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/misc/AIMM/overview/overview.asp

for more info. Unfortunately, it has been stated that future versions of
AIMM may not be backward compatible... which scared me away from finishing
up a sample that uses it (there are not any publicly available samples so I
may yet change my mind!).
