Yes, Brutus wraps MAPI at the server end. Maybe not at the Exchange server but at a server with the correct MAPI dll at least. So Brutus does presently only facilitate access to Exchange servers from 5.5 onwards by wrapping MAPI in CORBA, it is not a free reimplementation of MAPI. -- jules _______________________________________________ evolution-hackers maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
