I'm pretty sure something like this already exists. Why? because I know somebody who uses it. Ok, so it's written in asp (by MS if I'm not mistaking), still... I wouldn't know why you'd want to write a new one in php... seems hard to make to me; might be wrong though.

Hard to make is not a very good argument against making something. Especially when there's already a will to make it.

that wasn't the reason; the reason I'm looking at is that there is already a vendor-supplied way of doing it, and a non-vendor way would (most probably) not have the possibility of even duplicating the vendor-supplied version's possibilities (in this case).

That's like saying open source solutions can't compete with commercial solutions. I'm not buying it (pun observed but not intended :) Cheers, Rob.

pun accepted :) after thinking this over for a while, I actually started wondering if this is about building a webinterface to an application (outlook) or if it's simply an outlook-similair interface to a mailhost. If it's #1, I keep to my point (especially since you interface to an application which is *not* opensource). If it's #2 (or a variant thereof) I agree with you ;) - tul
