Hi,
Is it possible to communicate using .net (c#) with the exchange server and
check inbox email etc.

What I intend to do is to write a windows service that will check the inbox
and generate helpdesk tickets against each unread email and then mark it as
read.

is this achievable using .net and exchange server somehow??

Hello Rick,

I think your best option here is WebDAV. All other APIs are not supported
(MAPI) or require interop assemblies (CDO, CdoEx).

And your task is not very difficult to solve using WebDAV. See
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/En-US/library/aa486282.aspx and
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms876467.aspx.

I have some articles on my webseite as well (http://www.infinitec.de).

Kind regards,
Henning Krause
