We would really like to create an integration to Microsoft BPOS, their new online venture containing Microsoft Exchange Online, SharePoint Online etc. It would be a neat feature to chain link e-mails stored in Exchange Online with contacts and clients in Meeho!™.

However, we have a documentation problem, because no documentation covering integration options is available. We could not find anything useful in the MSDN Library, so we had to contact Microsoft. We received the following reply from the global, Redmond-based company:

Issue Description:
- Documentation for Web Services for Exchange Online

Issue Resolution/Workaround:
- Unfortuatnely there is no documentation to use web services with Exchange Online. I do apologize for this. We also do not provide support for web services or any customization to the services, but for best effort, the URL you would be using for Exchange Web Services is:

- https://red002.mail.emea.microsoftonline.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx

Thank you Kasper for contacting the Microsoft Online Services Technical Support,

So, there is simply no documentation available! We do accept Microsoft’s apology – I guess they’ve got their hands full over there – but no matter what it’s still aggravating when we really want to do this integration for our clients’ sake.

Lastly: if you log in at the page they link to, you’ll be presented with a WSDL, which is a good start if you find it amusing to guess your way through how everything works. Perhaps a few more words and a little less <’s and >’s would be good…
