Well maybe she knows something about talk and can tell you a bit but, in some cases, her information will probably be incomplete unless she spends a great deal of time on the Internet. Research takes time and we all know that most mothers do not have any extra time. So, we have decided to give you a Mothers Love by providing you with the best talk resources available.
We have spent many hours scouring the Net for information about talk and have linked them here for you. Just take a few minutes and click the link below for a great talk resource.
Microsoft CRM Customization: MS Exchange Transport SMTP Event Sink
by: Boris Makushkin
Microsoft CRM has variety of customizations options and tools. The official and the most popular is Microsoft CRM SDK: collection of C#.Net and partially VB.Net classes, methods and code samples. Here we would like to give you more complex case, when you call CRM SDK customization from custom MS Exchange event handler – we are improving the functionality of MS Exchange – MS CRM connector.
Imagine the case when you want outgoing email to be captured and placed into CRM, attached to Contact, Account or Lead they should belong to. If this is realized – your salespeople can use any email tool to send their messages, they do not have to do it in CRM or Outlook Client for CRM.
MS Exchange OnSyncSave database event can't work with Sent folder – it doesn't fire when message goes to Sent folder. The reason is described here:
PRB: Store Events Do Not Fire on the Outbox or Sent Item Folders
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q297274
Please, see SMTP Event Sink example in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317327. Event handler works OnArrival event:
void ISMTPOnArrival.OnArrival(CDO.IMessage msg, ref CDO.CdoEventStatus EventStatus)
{
log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(ShieldsUp));
DOMConfigurator.Configure(new FileInfo(Environment.SystemDirectory + "/CustomerApp/log.config"));
try {
ProcessMessage(msg);
}
catch (Exception ex) {
log.Debug(ex.Message + "\n" + ex.StackTrace);
}
finally {
LogManager.Shutdown();
}
}
The class:
// ComVisible enables COM visibility of this class. The default is true.
// Explicitly setting this attribute to true, as shown below, is useful
// if ComVisible is set to false for the namespace and you want the
// classes to be accessible individually.
[ComVisible(true)]
public class ShieldsUp: CDO.ISMTPOnArrival
{
Next the handling works similar to SyncSave handler:
private void ProcessMessage(CDO.IMessage msg)
{
string sFrom;
string sTo;
string sSubject;
string sBody;
string sSensitivity;
try
{
log.Debug("Firing Up ProcessMessage()");
sSubject = msg.Subject;
sBody = msg.TextBody;
sFrom = msg.From;
sTo = msg.To;
if (msg.Fields["urn:schemas:mailheader:sensitivity"].Value != null)
sSensitivity = msg.Fields["urn:schemas:mailheader:sensitivity"].Value.ToString();
else
sSensitivity = "Normal";
log.Debug("Message From: " + sFrom);
log.Debug("Message To: " + sTo);
log.Debug("Subject: " + sSubject);
log.Debug("Sensitivity: " + sSensitivity);
log.Debug("Body: " + sBody);
In deployment you should consider the following – the handler will work only in the case of SMTP protocol delivery. If you use Outlook or Outlook Web Access, then delivery uses MAPI and OnArrival doesn't fire. Please see this article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;273233
The elegant fix is two SMTP gateways, find it here http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q288756
