The other option is to write a plug in for Exchange that runs on the Exchange 
box. The API is unlikely to change. I can look at some details in a couple of 
weeks if this is the only option. We will be pushing out Exchange 2010 in a 
couple of months and we need this working as well.

Subject: Re: [sipx-users] IMAP - Exchange 2010 Sync

 

this would most likely be useless. the IMAP method sipx uses is very dependent 
on SEARCHES in HEADERS. Then you imap proxy still communicates with exchange to 
delete a certain message because all that is doing is passing that through to 
exchange. 

what you want or think is going to happen won't. you assume that the proxy 
(imap) will in turn somehow know how to tell exchange to delete the proper 
message. it will not because there is no method defined. if you can get into 
the exchange mail store and find the message and the method to deal with it... 
congratulations you have just written an api gateway... see my last post
