Hi,all

I am a new pie for Exchange Server,and also
It is first time to develop interface between Java and Exchange server.

My Problem is:

I have a Jave application, and want to talk with Exchange server to get Mail
List
by using MAPI,
I want to create a DLL file by using C++,and On Java side to call this
function.
Does it make a sense?
where Can I find some good example or good link?

Any suggestion would be great appreceiated

This is a reasonable approach. Documentation for ExMAPI is in MSDN,

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-
us/mapi/html/42a10169-99a3-4e30-a511-4854174d196f.asp?frame=true

is the bit of MSDN you need, though you'll need to look around there. I
don't know what to recommend as far as calling DLLs from Java goes,
that'll depend on the Java you're using.

If you're using Visual J++, you can use CDO1.21, which is an easier API
to use, though I think you can only use it directly with Microsoft's Java,
I haven't tried it myself. See
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;216723
for more on that.

Hello Jeff,

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, you could also do that with
WebDAV. You wouldn't have to built a clumpy DLL, you could stick to HTTP
calls to the Exchange Server (see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/e2k3/e2k3/wss_references_webdav.asp).
