Exchange Server and SAS 9.1.3/9.2

Question

has anyone successfully interacted with a microsoft exchange server in SAS 9.1.3 or 9.2? i know it can be done with SAS Ent. Guide 4.x, but i'm not interested in that route if regular SAS can do it.

Belongs on serverfault? serverfault.com – Dundee

no. i don't think so. i want to access an exchange server from the sas environment (old-school sas dms, thank you). – Lapidify

What kind of interactions? Do you mean check mail for an inbox, that kind of thing? – Phonologist

i was wanting to work messages (do text analysis on messages with certain tags, simple descriptives by sender, etc.) as well as query the address book. this was something of a passing interest to me. filed under "this would make a good SAS Global Forum paper". – Lapidify

Answer 1

here is a way to get it done http://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings10/086-2010.pdf

The idea is to create an access database to your emails and then read the data off that access database!

this certainly seems like it would get at what I wanted to get at all those years ago ;) – Lapidify
