Hi, All:
I am tasked with the following. I need to write a service to monitor an
Exchange mailbox and take action when an email is received, put it in a db,
etc. I do not need to send emails through MAPI, only monitor a folder in
exchange.
Can I use .NET objects to do this or do I absolutely need a 3rd party add-in
such as Outlook Redemption. This has to go on an enterprise production
server, so the server group will fight me hard if I tell them that i need a
3rd party add-in with my service.
Here is the fun part. No outlook on the machine, so I cannot instantiate
Outlook application. And, since it is a service, not user based, no option
for security prompts. I am not sending email through MAPI, only reading the
mailbox with supplied credentials. Is this possible with config laid out
(no outlook / has to run as service / built in .NET objects only)? Any
links / tips to put me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance!
