Hi, is it possible to fetch contacts info from Exchange Server using
JavaMail?
JavaMail supports the protocols SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol,
RFC 2821), POP3 (Post Office Protocol, revision 3, RFC 1081), IMAP4
(Internet Message Exchange Protocol, revision 4, RFC 1730) and NNTP
(Network News Transfer Protocol, RFC 977). These protocols are
internet standards (documented by RFCs) for the transmittal of email
messages (or usenet news messages, in the case of NNTP). None of
these protocols supports the transfer of contact information.
If not, which APIs can be used for the same? Thanks in
advance.
Microsoft has not, to the best of my knowledge, made the technical
details of the proprietary protocols that are used between MS Outlook
and the MS Exchange server publicly available, so these protocols
aren't documented and aren't internet standards. It is possible that
the MSexChange mail server may be configured to make address book
information available via LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol,
RFC 2251), so this may be a good place to start.
Cheers
GRB
