Does anyone have an example of how to read Exchange 2003 email box in C#
without have to install Outlook or any other client, no pop3 either?


Thank You

Hello Peter,

Thanks for using Microsoft Newsgroup Support Service, my name is Colbert
Zhou [MSFT] and I will be working on this issue with you.

We need to use the WebDAV to read exchange 2003 emails. There is a sample
project in the codeproject site,
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/vb/AccRemoteExchange.aspx

And you can find the official documents about the WebDAV in the following
link,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa143161.aspx

You can also get helps from the Exchange Development Newsgroup on the
WebDAV issues,

Hello Colbert Zhou [MSFT],

There is even a commercial library that abstracts this for you, making it
even simpler to use.

http://www.independentsoft.de/webdavex/index.html

I used it in the past and can reccommend it.

How do I determen if an email has an attachment in the following code?


using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Xsl;
using MSXML2;

MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP40Class oXmlHttp = new ServerXMLHTTP40Class();
System.Xml.XmlDataDocument xmlDOMParams = new XmlDataDocument();
MSXML2.DOMDocument40Class xmlDOMParamsAttachment = new DOMDocument40Class();

XmlNodeList xmlNdLstDonation;

oXmlHttp.open("PROPFIND", mailBox, false, user, password);
oXmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Depth", "1");
oXmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "xml");
oXmlHttp.send("");

string str = oXmlHttp.responseText;
xmlDOMParams.LoadXml(str);

xmlNdLstDonation = xmlDOMParams.GetElementsByTagName("e:to");

string to = "<[email protected]>";

foreach (XmlNode xn in xmlNdLstDonation)
{
if (xn.InnerText.ToLower().IndexOf(to) > -1)
{
//
// how do I determine if this email has an attachment
//
}
}

Hello Peter,

We need to use the X-MS-ENUMATTS method to enumerate the attachments of an
email message,

You can view the following MSDN document for a sample,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms877930(EXCHG.65).aspx

Thank you, that works great!

I have one more problem

The following code works fine when I run it as Console application, but when
I run the same code inside Windows Service program I am getting the
following error on this line "oXmlHttp.send(null); "

System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80072EEF): Exception from
HRESULT: 0x80072EEF
at MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP40Class.send(Object varBody)


Here's the code:

MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP40Class oXmlHttp = new ServerXMLHTTP40Class();

oXmlHttp.open("PROPFIND", mailBox, false, user, password);
oXmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Depth", "1");
oXmlHttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "xml");
oXmlHttp.send(null); // <-- This is where the error occurs


Or is there a better way of getting list of emails from the Inbox?

Hello,

Sorry for following up late!

Since it works in the console application, but not the windows service
application, have you tried to configure the windows service run in your
normal account, instead of Local System?

By the way, since this is totally a exchange dev issue, I recommend you
raise it in the more appropriate newsgroup, so that more experts on this
field can give help,
