Please suggest!

[MS]

We have a Requirement which needs to be done preferably using Microsoft

Technology.



We want an utility which should run on Exchange Server. Do not want Client

based tool.

I want to know how we can achieve this using Exchange server API / C# or

VB.Net



We are using Exchange 2003 as a Mail Server and the Requirement is to

intercept all the

Incoming and outgoing Messages and on various conditions store Info. of Mail

like From and To Mail IDs etc into SQL Server Database.

Lets Assume customer's mail ID is Customer@ABCD.C om and Sales Exec Assigned

to him is

SalesExec@Hotma il.com. In some odd scenario of some other Sales Exec (e.g.

SalesExec2222@H otmail.com) sends a mail to this customer then the utility

(which we have to build) running on EXCHANGE Server should intercept this

msg and insert a record in SQL Server DB or send a notification to

SalesExec@Hotma il.com that some other Sales Exec has sent some Mail to a

customer.

Re: Please suggest!

You need to evaluate another Microsoft product called
Customer Relationship Manager (CRM) as it supports this type
of functionality for managing sales processes.

Re: Please suggest!

MS,
In addition to ClitonG's comments.

Do you want to build or buy?

If you want to build, here is a good place to start on articles about using
Outlook & .NET, it includes a handful of articles on CDO & .NET.

For a discussion on selecting development technologies for Exchange Server,
start here:

Hope this helps
