[AccessD] Tracking Outlook message arrival

A quick search yielded this:
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/database.htm

The article did mention hooking into Exchange directly...but I did not read
in detail whether these connections were dependent on Outlook running or
not.

Subject: [AccessD] Tracking Outlook message arrival


List,

We had a request to place Outlook mail items in an MDB as they arrived at a
help desk mail account (Exchange).  Our developer put code in the Outlook
NewMail event to grab the fields we want and put them in the MDB.  Problem
is this method requires the e-mail account be open (running on a PC) and the
user(s) don't want a PC just to run this app.  

Is there a way to monitor an e-mail account or hook into Exchange to grab
this account's new mail as it hits the Inbox without running through
Outlook?  Outlook VBA, VB,  or Access 97 solutions are all viable for us.

TIA,

Jim DeMarco
Director Application Development
