    I am looking for a way for my mobile app to log into an exchange server and pull down all the messages in the users inbox. I've been having a hard time googling for info cause all the searches turn up with results from sending an email.

    The only solution I've found so far is to just have unity open an outlook app that is already logged in. I would prefer to keep the user in my app and just display the contents of their inbox.

    Ideas?

    Sorry but you must be mad, trying accessing someones email inbox via your app.
    This is very inappropriate.

    At best you could use embedded browser solution. And allow user to choose, if want to login that way. But that really smell, why you want to do that.

    What you going to tell user? "Hey, we would like to read all our private emails. We would appreciate, if you would let us do that, so we can expand our mailing list, start mass ads spam and email pishing to your contacts."

    Sorry again, but this i very big red flag, for what you tring to attempt.
