asp_web_howto thread: ASP to tap into Exchange


Message #1 by Mark Eckeard <meckeard2000@y...> on Wed, 5 Feb 2003 06:29:49 -0800 (PST)
Hi Group,

I need to send an email using the email address list
in MS Exchange 5.5.  

What I would like to do it tap in to Exchange and get
the full email list and display it in a drop down box
for the visitor to select.

This is in-house on our intranet, so permissions
should not be a hugh issue.

Has anyone done this before???  If so, how?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I have some sample code for this, but not at home (where I am right now). 
I'll try to find it at work tomorrow and send it to you.
I did some testing with it some time ago (for an app I had to design) but 
found it quite slow. You may need to do some aggressive caching to get it 
to an acceptable speed.

Cheers,

Imar

Imar,
I was going to ask the same question.  I too have an Intranet that uses
forms to submit requests via email to various departments.  When I use
SMTP mailto:    sometimes it does not work because of how the client is
set up.  I changed it to CDO and it will work fine however I need the
FROM so a reply can be sent back.  So I am looking for either a
connection to exchange or to the userids on the domain.  Our userids are
the first part of the email addresses.
Any sample you can send me would be great...
Thanks
Ron

Hi Ron,

I'll post what I have here. If I remember correctly, the code queries the 
Global Address list. It should be possible to tweak it so it queries other 
address lists as well.

Cheers,

Imar

Yes, AFAIK it does. We run Exchange 2000 as well, and if I am not mistaken 
we have tried it against that version.

In the mean time, you could try:

http://www.slipstick.com/

Especially this may be useful:

Hi there,

Sorry, guys. Can't find the ASP variation of the code.

However, there is a thread at:

    http://p2p.wrox.com/archive/pro_vb/2002-08/22.asp

that discusses getting at the Global Address list from a VB application. 
It might give you some ideas. It it doesn't work in ASP directly, you 
could move the code to a VB DLL and use that in an ASP page.

If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask. We need to dig deep 
in our memory here, but we may be able to help.


Cheers,

Imar

Imar,

I would be more than willing to use it as a DLL, just
as long as it works.

Thanks for the link.
