DLL registration return code 0x80029c4a

1

I'm fairly new to COM programming and I have a DLL that compiles, but wont register when I attempt to run it. I followed this tutorial here http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/2wad1c0e(v=vs.80) and modified it to produce the code bellow. I'm not quite sure what I did wrong here.

#pragma once
#define STRICT
#ifndef _WIN32_WINNT
#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400
#endif
#define _ATL_ATTRIBUTES
#define _ATL_APARTMENT_THREADED
#define _ATL_NO_AUTOMATIC_NAMESPACE
#include <atlbase.h>
#include <atlcom.h>
#include <atlwin.h>
#include <atltypes.h>
#include <atlctl.h>
#include <atlhost.h>
using namespace ATL;

        version="1.0",
        uuid="0933FDCB-7CA1-41C7-BBA0-D1EF8C76F7A7",
        helpstring = "SMTPSink SMTPSink type library 1.0") ];
[ emitidl ];

This was a simple case of my RC file not having the

1                       TYPELIB           "SMTPSink.tlb"

line. Don't know why it wasn't there in the first place.
