Custom Programming - Webmail Check and Respond
Project details
We need a small app created that will sit on a server, log into a webmail application every 5 minutes and check for arriving email to that particular email account. If mail is received, the app needs to reply to the email and “accept” the meeting invite. (Please see the attached screenshot showing a sample email.)
The app needs to “virtually” click the “accept” button – The link behind the “accept” button is:
Here is greater explanation describing what we are actually trying to make happen.
If you are familiar with Microsoft Exchange, you can create a conference room as a shared resource that you can check availability of. This functionality does not exist in our SmarterMail Enterprise Edition software.
Instead, we have a meeting conference room that we have set up as user account that can be invited to meetings in the calendaring application just like any other user account can. But the only way we can make the conference room’s availability known so it shows up on a shared calendar is to physically have a person always logged in as the conference room user and then when someone schedules a meeting, he or she “accepts” the meeting as the conference room user – updating the Conference Room Calendar. We want to automate this and not have to have a human constantly checking this email box. We want the meeting invites “automatically accepted” via a self running web application.
Our server is on a cloud server running WindowsServer2008 R2 and IIS 7.5. (but we can provide other options if needed.)
