Hi all thanks for you replies. I've been out for 2 days so sorry for my late response. the thing is... i kinda wrote the pop3 component myself, so that part is already covered. Now i'm creating a webinterface to go with it. And i would like to add an Import/Export function to the webinterface which alows users to import there Outlook mailbox.
the thing is, i don't want to use the outlook Dll's because it's about importing/exporting other people's .dbx files. and i have the php example at hand. only it's kind of hard to translate. So that's what i'm looking for Regards Remie Bolte ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shawn Berg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "ActiveServerPages" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2002 2:49 PM Subject: RE: Php 2 Asp > Would probably be easier to just pull down the mail from the POP server and > not even use Outlook Express..
