Exchange Client OS Design Development (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The Exchange Client implementation provides programmatic access to contact, global address list (GAL), and free/busy information stored on an Exchange server.
The Exchange Client interacts with an Exchange server using the same Outlook Web Access (OWA) interface that users use to access Exchange data through a web browser. This means it can connect over an internal network or over a public network like the Internet, using the same HTTP protocol as a web browser.
If you connect over a public network, be sure you consider all security issues. For more information, see Exchange Client Security.
