I work for a small university in Chicago, and am what I'd call a movice perl coder -- that's a medium novice.
Anyway, our campus community is pretty well split between commuters and on campus students. And, since everyone's getting so net-saavy these days, many students come to school with email accounts that they already use regularly (hotmail, yahoo, etc.). We'd like to allow them to use a CGI to change their "on campus email address" to whatever their current "primary address" is. This is the sort of overview of how we were thinking about doing it -- at least, this is how it's done in the GUI (Exchange 2000): 1. Delete their mailbox. 2. MailEnable the AD user with the off campus address. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) This allows their user to still show in the Global Address List, but have the address associated with it point off campus. 3. Add a secondary SMTP address for North Park (the school) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) so that if someone sends email to that address it will be redirected to their s00perwebmail account. We're looking at doing this with either Perl or with VB -- I'm gunning for Perl myself. So I did some research into modules like Win32::Exchange to see what stuff was already modularized, and as far as I can tell, I can do the mailbox deletion and adding the secondary SMTP through that module, but I don't see a method for doing the MailEnable and adding the external address. Am I overlooking something? Or does this have to be done with the OLE calls? If someone could point me in the right direction on this, I'd be grateful. Thanks, Peter -- Peter A.
