Speaking with the benefit of ignorance, I notice at

	http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/05/11/novell_connector/

the comment:

	Connector only works if Outlook Web Access is enabled

Does this mean that it works by parsing the web output generated by exchange ?
I must admit that I thought that it worked by speaking MAPI (proprietary
protocol used between outlook & exchange).

Does anyone know more ?
