Hi all,

Is it possible to access physical eml files in Exchange 2003 as was done
previously with Exchange 2000 using its M drive.

Hello,

it was never a good idea to use the M: drive because you can easily mess up
security descriptors of elements.

The correct way to get an .EML file is to perform a HTTP GET request on the
url of the item (The url you see in OWA) and add a Translate: F header to
the Http request.

Kind regards,
Henning

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Well I need to extract eml file owner name. Will it
be possible from Translate: F

If not is there any other way of doing that ?

what do you mean by "owner"?

Kind regards,

Hi,

By owner I meant owner of file, one who has created a file or the authorized
user.
