I'm creating an oulook plugin with that uses webdav to communicate with
the exchange server outlook is connected to.

At the moment, I have problems uniquely identifying the folders in
outlook - in the exchange store. Normally I would build up the path of
the folder by traversing the selection via the outlook object model,
but in certain cases.. the path you end up with is not the actual path
to the webdav ressource.

Example:

Create a hierarchy of 3 or more folders in the inbox.
Moves this hierarchy of folders to another folder in the inbox.
What next happens is where it gets tricky.

When exploring the folder structure via a webdav explorer I can see
that the folders in the hierarchy I just moved have NOT updated their
HREFs in the exchange store. This intern means that I can no longer
identify the folders in outlook with the folders in exchange because
the urn I can build up in outlook does not match the actual urn in
exchange.

Does anyone know why exchange doesn't update urns of subfolders when
moving a hierarchy of folders? Is it intended? Is there a workaround?

Update:

This problem only appears to happen on Exchange 2000 servers.

On my Exchange 2003 box I can move hierarchies without the HREFs
bugging up.
