hi, We are facing problem with injecting compressed (gzip) mail items. We are trying with Exchange 2003.... We configured our mail serverâs IIS to support compression of .EML files. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/502ef631-3695-4616-b268-cbe7cf1351ce.mspx?mfr=true And our extraction works fine with extracting mail items in compressed form. We are using âAccept-Encodingâ header with value âgzip, deflateâ along with âGETâ method. But when we try to inject the compressed stream to a 2k3/2k7 mailbox using âPUTâ method, we are getting blank mail item. Actual mail is not getting injected. We tried with following approaches along with PUT method: 1.âAccept-Encodingâ header with value âgzip, deflateâ. 2.âContent-Encodingâ header with value âgzipâ. 3.Setting the AutomaticDecompression property of HttpWebRequest to 4.DecompressionMethods.Gzip. 5.Setting the Content-Type of the HttpWebRequest to âmessage/rfc822â, âapplication/x-compressedâ, âapplication/x-zip-compressedâ, âapplication/x-gzip-compressedâ and âapplication/octet-streamâ. Are we missing something else? Please help us!!! -Sumeet
