The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Exchange Active Server Components, version 5.0
SUMMARY
With the Microsoft Exchange Active Server Components (also known as the Web
Connector), you can use a web browser to access your private mailbox, as
well public folder discussions and directory information. Developers can
also easily build interactive web-based applications using the rich data
storage and directory and messaging capabilities of Microsoft Exchange
Server. These applications enable developers to make ordinary web pages
more rich, interactive, and compelling by adding Microsoft Exchange
services such as a threaded discussion. (See the Microsoft Web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/http.htm for more background
information).
This article outlines known limitations of the Microsoft Exchange Active
Server Components.
