Since your components will run on a server, I'd personally recommend using
WebDAV, which is the same technique that Outlook Web Access uses to gain
access to Exchange.

no.

possible solution? (But does that cut out using Biztalk?)

The interface to WSS is WebDAV.

for that?

poor documentation?

no.

I have a class library that can read e-mail using WebDAV. I'm sure you
could use it to create your own custom adapter. Send me e-mail if you are
interested.
