Subject: Exchange integration/nndav revisited

Message-ID: <87ll5xyumi.fsf@dod.no> (raw)

Since MSCE-carrying Exchange maintainers seem to be more willing to
open webmail on Exchange servers than to open the IMAP integration, it
might be an idea to revisit august of last year's discussion on Gnus
Exchange integration: 
	http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/53652

Short summary: Exchange 2000 servers, and beyond, expose a WebDAV
interface when their webmail support is enabled.  Since this WebDAV
interface is what the ActiveX webmail component in IE uses, and this
is what Microsoft's own Exchange client for Mac OS X ("Entourage X")
uses, it is not likely that it will go away soon.  This WebDAV
interface is what Evolution and Kontakt uses to communicate with
Exchange servers, and it looks like it is possible to interface Gnus
this way as well.

Some links that aren't in the august discussion:

 "Access Your Exchange 2000 / 2003 Mailbox With WebDAV"; an example of
 making VBScript to access the mailbox using WebDAV:
	http://www.msexchange.org/articles/Access-Exchange-2000-2003-Mailbox-WebDAV.html
 "Eldav: Yet another WebDAV interface for Emacsen"; this mode uses an
 outside program called "nd" to do the actual WebDAV.  The august
 discussion thread talks about using cadaver for this, so I guess that
 means this approach isn't irrelevant...?
