Exchange email

[Jason]

Hi all

I have wrote a small email client that checks POP3 email (using username and
password). this work fine.
I would now like to add the functionality to check email on an exchange
server, that is to use the NT username at that moment, connect to the local
exchange server and then pull the email "off" the exchange server. pull it
off, as in the email is deleted off the exchange server. preferably to pull
it off the exchange server in the raw text (like POP3) so i can do whatever
i want with it from there.

anywhere i can read up on this, or any sample code anyone has for me?

Thanks
Jason

Jason,

I think you will want to use CDO through COM interop to do this. The
classes in the System.Web.Mail namespace do not have the ability to access
exchange stores directly (as opposed to a POP3 interface).

Hope this helps.

Jason,

You have two options. The first is CDO, the other is to access MAPI
directly. However, you might have a problem, because programs outside of
Outlook have security dialogs thrown up when those APIs are accessed outside
of Outlook.
