Unaligned Data and the PST Provider Redux

Just wanted to note that the April Cumulative Update for Outlook 2007 fixes the unaligned data issue with the PST provider. So passing a statically allocated NULL string as a PST password should no longer be a problem. BTW – Outlook’s update isn’t listed

CDO and the Euro

We had a customer who used CDO to create appointments and send meeting requests. Since they were operating in Europe, it wasn’t unusual for these items to have the E uro symbol (€) in the body of a meeting. When they would send the appointment, if the

MrXP Rules (At Least When You Tell It To)

I’m repeating myself – I did use a variation on this title before. In this case, suppose you’re using a custom transport provider, like MrXP , and you’re delivering to a regular (not wrapped) PST. In Outlook 2003, this worked great. If you had rules set

I just wanted to let you know about a problem we’ve found with the February update for Outlook 2007 . If you’ve got code that calls ConfigureMsgService for the PST provider, and you’re passing PR_PST_PW_SZ_OLD (or PR_PST_PW_SZ_NEW) you might run into

Direct Load of ExMAPI32.dll Now Works

A few months ago I documented a bug in the Exchange MAPI download that prevents you from loading ExMAPI32.dll directly. The only way to load it was through the MAPI Stub library. This problem is now fixed with the 6.5.8069 update . A few notes: You must

Rewriting the From Address in Exchange 2007

So - we've got customers who had been using the Exchange 2007 Transport Agent's OnRoutedMessage event as a place to rewrite From addresses. This broke in Exchange 2007 SP1 due to some tweaks we made to the transport pipeline to solve a variety of other

This Just In: MAPI and Windows Server 2008 Now Get Along

The MAPI/CDO download package now works on Windows Server 2008 and Vista. The main blocker to getting this to work was the fact that in Windows Server 2008 and Vista, mapi32.dll was marked as a system file. Any attempt to replace it would be blocked or
