FYI: Exchange 2007 Web Services Around the Web

Here are some Exchange 2007 Web Services resources from around the web...

VIDEO: Karim Batthish, an Exchange Program Manager, talks at Tech Ed 2006 about Exchange 2007 Web Services.

PPT: "Exchange 2007 Web Services: 42 APIs is not the Answer" from Tech Ed 2006 New Zealand.
As a person who has to maintain working knowledge of those 42 APIs, I love the idea of simplifying the landscape. I love the title it is so true and something I'm sure every Exchange developer is happy for us to recognize.

CODE: Former Microsoftee, Eric Lee provides Exchange Server 2007 Web Service API for Developers!
He uses a lot of pictures which always makes things more interesting. The other neat thing about this post is that Eric is a Web Services developer with no Exchange experience. The information in this post is from a Web Services enthusiast point of view, not of an Exchange developer...

CODE: Stephen Griffin, Exchange Web Services and MAPI Props.
The MAPI Guy is doing web services?! Very appropriately, Stephen details how to get at arbitrary MAPI properties using web services.

CODE: Sending Attachments via the Exchange Web Services in Exchange 2007.
The introduction of this code sample has some great points... (1) If you have used WebDAV to send an email with attachments, you will find Web Services to be easier. If you have used CDOSYS to send an email with attachments, it is much more involved.   (2) CDOSYS has always been and still is a very valuable tool for parsing and creating MIME, even if you are not using for sending mail.
