MrMAPI: Request to add an option to access another user’s mailbox via service account logon.
MrMAPI is a handy tool to use and demonstrate usages of Extended MAPI with Exchange.
We see our customer using MrMAPI to automate some tasks, to read info out of Exchange which is not available via another Messaging APIs.
However, to utilize MrMAPI to its full potential in scenario like above it should have an option to pass another user mailbox (as parameter) to be accessed by service account logon.
