@maija worse is #MAPI which solely exost to enshure @thunderbird can't work with #MicrosoftExchange out of the box!
#MAPI
@silhouette @lil5 Oh, that shite...
- #Microsoft still refuses to support #IMAP & #SMTP instead?
Cuz I remember their #MAPI bs and #OWA being the only way to use #Thunderbird if the admins didn't allow IMAP & SMTP using a commercial addon...
Enquanto a galera pula carnaval eu migro 🔀 Mailbox 📫... Migração de correio de cPanel IMAP para Microsoft Exchange Online... #cpanel #imap #mapi #activesync #MicrosoftExchange #ExchangeOnline #Microsoft365
Anyone have resources for property values in MAPI/MSG appointment files?
Please help #ApacheTika improve extraction of appointment and task metadata from #msg #mapi:
@heinelo genau das sehe ich fundamental andersherum, eben weil jene #Monokultur ein Problem ist, sollten Leute umso mehr an offene Standards gewohnt werden.
#MicrosoftOffice kann problemlos #OpenDocument verarbeiten, aber #OOXML ist bewusst so designed dass es faktisch unmöglich ist dies sauber zu implementieren!
- Dasselbe gibt auch bei anderen Standards wie #IMAP vs. #MAPI / #MicrosoftExchange...
Wäre was anderes wenn Mensch zu "Fachsoftware" fenötigt wird wie :würg: SAP oder :kotz: DATEV...
@fuchsiii @ncommander #MicrosoftExchange is just so #cursed beyond reason, I'd rather #SelfHost my #eMail on a manually installed #Postfix & #Courier under #OracleSolaris or #OpenBSD instead...
#Microsoft's horrible, proprietary protocol known as #MAPI is a plight and before I'd even open #Outlook I'd rather pay for a commercial @thunderbird / #Thunderbird addon than to even look at #OWA or #Outlook to begin with...
And yes I did the latter in the past!
Considering the fact that #Matrix's reference implementation pushes towards #AGPLv3 and is thus non-free and very restrictive to license, I wished for #XMPP+#OMEMO / XMPP+#PGP/MIME or #IRC or #Zulip integration instead.
But maybe that's me who found Matrix to be on-par with #Spack, #RocketChat, #Mattermost & #MicrosoftTeams when it comes to bad #UI & #UX.
I sincerely wish for said #Chat system to be either a dedicaded #App or modularized, but then again I wounder how much value it could add compared to #Gajim & #Pidgin...
Please fix the bugs and make Thunderbird better...
Consider buying up #Beonex or implementing proper #MAPI support instead...
Personally I'm able.and willing to pay for good Software:
I literally paid €10 p.a. more than once in order to have @thunderbird just work with shit like #MicrosoftExchange simply because #MAPI is garbage and I won't use #Outlook.
Kurze Frage an die #DotNet #Entwickler. Hat von euch schon mal eine Anwendung geschrieben, die als Handler für #MAILTO und auch als Client für #MAPI-Aufrufe genutzt werden kann. Hab da noch nichts passendes gefunden, das Windows die Anwendung dafür dann akzeptiert #computerkram
@cammerman nope.
#CalDAV exists and it works just fine on @nextcloud and #OpenXchange...
it's just that proprietary trash like #MAPI / #ActiveSync makes issues.
Same with contacts (#CardDAV), Files (#WebDAV) and eMail (#IMAP)...
@animemer @thecatcollective @torproject not to mention all the protocols of all their applications and devices from #DVB over #TCP / #UDP ( #IPv & #IPv6 ) are #OpenSource.
- Even if they use shitty #MicrosoftExchange's #MAPI instead of #IMAP, the #Mailserver still uses #SMTP to sent out stuff.
- #HTTP (#Apache, #ngnix)
- #FTP (#vsftpd)
- #SSL (#OpenSSL & #Mozilla NSS)
- #SteamDeck runs #ArchLinux / #SteamOS
- #NintendoSwitch & #PS3-#PS5 & #PSvita run #FreeBSD.
@ryanhoulihan NO, it would be a classic #EmbraceExtentExtinguish move!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace%2C_extend%2C_and_extinguish#Examples_by_Microsoft
Espechally since #MAPI is purposefully laced with #patents to enshure @mozilla #Thunderbird and other #FLOSS clients can't support it out-of-the box!
And it necessitates 3rd party addons to be able to use a good client...

@nextcloud Personally, I'd rather want #Nextcloud instead of #Exchange because there is no good reason to use proprietary bs like #MAPI over #OpenStandards like #IMAP / #SMTP, #CalDAV & #CardDAV...
@atomicpoet @rberger Both should've never existed in the first place.
#Silverlight - like #Flash - deservedly died as all #proprietary #rentseeking technology should!
I sincerely hope proprietary shit like #MAPI & #OOXML will soon die out with #Win32 / #Win64 / #WinRT APIs.
Because the only sustainable tech is FLOSS...
@mcepl @ProfessorCode @survey noone should use #OOXML.
It's purposefully designed to be unimplementable by anyone but #Microsoft (similar to #Exchange's #MAPI protocol) and inherently worse than #OpenDocument due to being > 6.000 pages of legacy bloatware down to Office 4.2 bugs.
@jonny I literally rather pay €10 p.a. for the #Owl #AddOn on @mozilla #Thunderbird and bill that to said org rather than having to deal with shit like #Outlook.
Also I demand that basic standards like #IMAP & #SMTP as well as #CalDAV & #CardDAV be offered instead of bs like #MAPI which is a shitty protocol that should be illegal alongside #OOXML & #XPS...
@juanjocerero @rtve lo sé, pero siguen emitiendo programas "nuevos" de #Mapi porque ya estaban grabados. Y las audiencias son muy buenas teniendo en cuenta contra quién compite (el Hormiguero). Además, se trata de un programa de cultura y entretenimiento (muy bueno, desde mi punto de vista, que esperaba que fuera otra cosa hasta que vi el primer programa). Desde mi punto de vista, no han dado suficientes razones para cerrar el programa. Si al menos tuvieran algo con lo que sustituirlo...
Es increíble cómo maltrata @rtve al programa #Mapi y a sus seguidores. Lo último ha sido retrasar la hora de comienzo a más de las 22h, cuando sus seguidores pedían en redes sociales que el inicio se adelantara para que lo pudieran ver los niños, público principal del canal Clan TVE, que es donde ahora se emite. :blobfacepalm:
el #mapi de hoy es graciosísimo y lo estoy diciendo de forma totalmente no irónica
