HI, I am BRAND new to DotNetNuke (installed 3.0.12 today).  I am searching for a module that will display Outlook Inbox in the same way that msn displays Hotmail inbox basically (shows the ten most recent or something like that, then you click on a message and it takes you into your Web Outlook).  I have searched everywhere and have not found anything.  Is this not available?  I would also like similar functionality with a module that would display your calendar for the day that you could click on and have it take you into your Outlook Calendar (this was sort of mentioned on the suggestions and ideas forum).  I didn't know where to post this since I didn't know if these Outlook modules already existed... is this something that needs to be developed still?  I am also looking for a module that would connect to a db, pull data and display it in different formats (bar graph, pie graph, line graph, list, etc where the user could decide how to display it and toggle between them all).  Does this exist already?  Let me know if I should add any of these to the suggestions forums...

In summary, looking for the following modules:

1. outlook inbox

2. outlook day calendar

3. graph creation from db

Thank you for your help!

I've never tried, but maybe you could put Outlook Web Access into a DNN IFrame?

You may even get single sign-on if you use Tam's Active Directory Authentication.  Haven't tried any of this though.

Well, outlook web access within an IFrame actually works very well....   OWA doesn't try to take over the entire window like some other apps do.  Creating new emails or contacts work great too.

You'd just have to figure out any authentication issues.

I added OWA to an IFrame and it works fine.  For right now i have to log in every time.  Will worry about that later...

Do you know if there is a way to have it only show the Inbox though?  Right now it shows the whole panel (folder list on the left, and controls at the top for new message and so on).  I would like this to work somewhat like it works on a mymsn page showing Hotmail inbox where you see only a list of emails (like top ten or so).  Then you click on one and it takes you into the whole panel with everything (no longer looking in just a small portal module).  But to where the main portal frame is still around it all, but it takes up the whole content, left, and right.

Hi Sharlyn,

If you really want to customize the email inbox, I think you might have to write a component that would talk to exchange using the user logged in. It is a fair bit of work though.

OWA works OK, but it will look exactly like outlook, not MYMSN.

so I take it, as far as you know, there is not a module already developed that does this sort of thing?

Thank you for your help!  I appreciate your feedback, forum, and website.

From what I remember, there is no such module, but who knows.
