Exchange Web Services Example – Part 3 – Exchange Impersonation

In part 3 of this series on integrating Exchange Web Services with Java and OpenEdge, we’re going to talk about a technique for accessing mailboxes called Exchange Impersonation. The first part of this article is going to talk about what it is, how it works, and the very serious risks it can potentially introduce to your enterprise. We’ll talk a little about how you can mitigate those risks, how to set it up from an administrative point of view, and then we’ll actually use it.

As with the other articles in this series, there is also a set of sample code that you can download and install to follow along later in the article.

OpenEdge GUI for .NET – Testing the Bridge

Progress Software Corporation has been running a program to test the OpenEdge GUI for .NET bridge with controls that have no user-interface. My company, Intangere, is very interested in this program because we are looking at releasing a control that would make it possible for OpenEdge developers to communicate directly with a Microsoft Exchange Server and receive mailbox updates for an OpenEdge client.

Intangere thus signed up for the program and created a control that mimics the behavior of a real Exchange Web Services control. This test has been surprisingly successful, and this article provides some information about the test and the code and a document that describes its use.
