This only happens for one of the Exchange servers that I query. the server
is SBS2000, and OWA works properly. When I run my SEARCH request against
other SBS2000 and SBS2003 Exchange servers I get the XML results, but with
one perticular machine I only get the frameset page

I am setting the header info per the exch docs

HttpWRequest.KeepAlive = False
HttpWRequest.Headers.Set("Pragma", "no-cache")
HttpWRequest.Headers.Set("Translate", "f")
HttpWRequest.Headers.Set("Depth", "0")
HttpWRequest.ContentType = "text/xml"
HttpWRequest.ContentLength = sQuery.Length
HttpWRequest.Timeout = 300000
HttpWRequest.Method = "SEARCH"

What am I doing wrong, or is there something that I need to change on the
Exchange server

OK I will answer my own question. The Exchange server in question had OWA
running on a non standard port. Because of this the query was getting messed
up. If i opened port 443 the query worked perfectly.

This begs the question why can't I webdav query this server on a non
standard port?

It should work okay as long as you put the port number in the request URL:

http(s)://servername:portnumber/Exchange/mailboxname/folder/item.eml

I think that is the problem rather than using ip:port I was using an alias
that redirected to the alternate port. because of this the "traverse"
portion of the webdav query does not have the port number in it just the
name of the alias. I will have to check later if it will work if I pass the
information in ip:port format

Just checked it. that was my problem. It always amazes me how simple things
like this cause the most lost time!
