Getting started with programming for exchange

Can anyone point me to a "beginners guide to programming for
exchange"? Or any other documentation on programming interfaces for
exchange?

I'm wanting to create exchange mailboxes at the same time as I create
users in AD, and delete those mailboxes when users are deleted form
AD. I'm programming in C, and want to be able use the resulting
program from any workstation in the domain, rather than have to run it
on the server hosting exchange.

TIA, John

Hi,

do you work with Exchange 2007 or 2003? The necessary steps are very
different for the two versions.

Kind regards,
Henning Krause

In the first instance, Exchange 2007. Any pointers to docs or example
code which would help get me off the starting line, would be
appreciated.

TIA, John

Hi,

in the case of Exchange 2007 you would want to call the Cmdlets new-mailbox
(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997663.aspx) and
remove-mailbox (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa995948.aspx).

You can call the cmdlets from managed code...

Kind regards,
Henning Krause
