Great Post! I have been researching methods for retrieving mail items from Exchange public folders for a week or so now. webDAV looks promising and your example is much clearer than most I have seen.

Your example works great for my inbox, but when I attempt to search the public folder I get a "501 Not Implemented" error. Do you know if it is possible for Exchange to disabled this type access to public folders while allowing Inbox access?

Note:

I can use our https://myMail.myCorp.com website to view both my Inbox (/exchange/) and public folders (/public/) .

If anyone is interested... I changed the SCOPE in the SQL from 'deep traversal' to 'shallow traversal' to access public folders.

I could access public folders even with the 'deep traversal' option. I've read that sometimes if there is a migration from Exchange 2003 to 2007 it may give that error and some Admin task should be run.

The Scope should be based on how you want to look for your elements:

There is also a restriction on MAPI stores using deep traversal:

HI,

Can you please tell me how can you do the same through the VB Script....

I've already done it through .Net but I need it in the vb... I'm trying to reuse WinHttp SetRequestHeader and setting sessionid and cadata header but of no use...

There is a VB (not VB Script) sample in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308373

I don't think you won't need to modify too much code to make it work on VBScript.

Here is a Javascript sample http://www.infinitec.de/articles/exchange/webdavwithfba.aspx

I tried the link and works ok: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms879334.aspx

I am not really sure by what you mean by some lines disappeared. The code is compilable and runnable "AS IS" (You only need to replace the variables values

Dim strServerName As String = "<ENTER SERVER NAME>"

Dim strDomain As String = "<ENTER DOMAIN NAME>"

Dim strUserID As String = "<ENTER USER ID>"

Dim strPassword As String = "<ENTER PASSWORD>"

Dim strUserName As String = "<ENTER USER NAME>"

Dim term As String = "<ENTER A STRING TO SEARCH>"

)

Lothu:

It seems that the server is not responding, this can happen for various reasons:

1 Firewall in client or server

2 WebDav could be disabled in Exchange

3 Address is not correct

4 The protocol is not correct (check if the server can use ssl, otherwise use http instead of https)

5 ...

I am getting a 440 Login Timeout error on the Response = Request.GetResponse() line of code. Is there something that I should do on the server side or should this all be able to be done from where the program is run without messing with the server? Any help is appreciated - Thank you.
