Frank,

The script merely displays the default contents of the Outlook inbox
belonging to the current NT user logged onto the server. In this case it
will be the System user, or whichever user you have your ColdFusion service
running under. I haven't actually tried entering user/pass into the
objNameSpace.logon parameter, but I'm guessing this will probably enable you
to choose which NT account to use. This would in turn determine the default
inbox, either via Exchange server (if in use) or purely via the NT login
account (providing that account has been used on the server and that there
are emails corresponding to that account).

If you are hoping to achieve what I think you're hoping to achieve, which is
to simply display the local user's inbox contents in the browser, then you
should take a look at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q281618 which gives
details on using the Outlook Viewer Control. This is all done using the html
<object> tag and some code samples have been provided at the above link. If,
however you have any further problems with this, let me know.

HTH,
Dave

Hi Dave,

We have Outlook on the server. What I don't understand is in the view
messages(headers) page. How does the script know who's messages to retrieve
if there is no login specified?  I'm missing something very basic here:(

Thanks
