I don't think there's any good reason to use MAPI if AVAPI is working.
AVAPI is supposedly infallible because it's in the middle of message flow;
that is, no messages are supposed to pass unless being passed through the
AVAPI.  I'm not familiar with NAV, but you should be absolutely sure that
you have the latest versions of NAV's code and the Microsoft AVAPI code.
Earlier versions were problematic.

Subject: Is there a workaround to use both MAPI and AVAPI with NAV for
Ex change 5.5?


When we loaded the latest NAV for exchange 5.5 it had the new AVAPI option
so we had it use both MAPI and AVAPI modes.  This seemed to work but several
strange things began to happen.  First thing we noticed is that users who
tried to move a lot of messages from one folder to another would get error
messages (message was moved or access denied) and only some of the messages
would move.  They could get around this problem by moving messages one at a
time, but if they were trying to move 200 messages this would be
unsatisfactory.  Also, if you would try to export a users mail to a PST
file, you would get the same type of error and you would end up with a PST
that only had some of the messages you tried to export.

We turned off AVAPI and all is good again, except I'm sure it is possible to
slip a virus past the scanner if it gets too busy.  Does anyone know of a
workaround to make the AVAPI thing really work?

Tom
