APM: RE: RPC on windows

[Jeremy Brooks]

thanks,  I'll check his site out.
Yes, I have some modules you'd probably be interested in.
My company (www.mobile-o.com) developed a set of MS Exchange interaction
modules that use WebDAV to bring Outlook like functionality to Perl. 
They've only been tested on Linux/Perl 5.8 but with Exchange 2000 and
2003.  I've written a website for hand held devices that uses these
modules web email access that brings pop and Exchange accounts
together.  I plan on getting the package onto CPAN toward the end of the
year, or sooner.  The package includes modifications to HTTP::DAV and
several MS Exchange specific modules that currently reside in
Mobileo::Exchange.  The location of the latter will need to be changed
and may end up in HTTP::Exchange,DAV::Exchange, or somewhere like that. 
If you'd like to work on testing and/or adding to them I'd be willing to
upload them this month.
