Exchange 2003 API Pointers?

Looking for all pointers, references, code sample for sending commands
to Exchane 2003. I would like to send mail using MAPI, create/modify
appointments, etc. I don't want an Outlook interface, but something
that will talk to Exchange directly (impersonating any user I see
fit).

Thanks.
 
Hello,

assuming that you'l want to use .NET as your language of choice (since you
have posted in a .NET newsgroup), you should stay away from MAPI. It's not
supported in .NET.

If you want to access Exchange directly from .NET you can either use CDO
(via interop) or use WebDAV.

Best regards,

Hi Lucius,

As for directly communicate with Exchange server, I agree with Henning
that the WebDav interface should be prefered which use XML based http
message to send command to target exchange server. In .net frameworrk, you
can use HttpWebRequest component to send http requests with XML data. The
knowledge base library contains many sample articles on this(such as send
email or create folder objects through exchange webDav):
