Re: RPG to domino or exchange



All of the suggestions I've seen so far discuss how to use a Domino or 
Exchange SMTP server to send mail.

That's nice, and it'll send the message -- but it won't put it in the 
user's "sent" folder as Larry asked.

I'm not familiar with Domino or Exchange.  But, normally when an e-mail 
client sends e-mail, it writes the message to two places.  The first 
place is the SMTP server, of course, so that it can be sent.  The second 
place is the "sent" folder.

We use an IMAP server (an open source tool running on a Unix computer) 
for our e-mail instead of using something like Domino or Exchange. Our 
e-mail tools use the SMTP protocol to send the e-mail over the network, 
and the IMAP protocol to write the message to the "sent" folder on the 
server.

Perhaps your Domino or Exchange server is IMAP compliant and you can do 
the same thing?  Of course, you'd have to write IMAP software, which 
might not be trivial... but it'd be the standards-compliant way to do 
the job.

Otherwise, you're going to have to actually invoke the Domino or 
Exchange software to have it do the job.  I have no idea how to do that 
from an RPG program.
