Publishing Documents via Email

Q.
We would like to publish documents to the Web through GroupWise Document Management. The editing and publishing will take place from the GroupWise client side. Currently we have a IIS web server and would like to use ASP to go and retrieve documents using a generic user id and password from the IIS server back through GroupWise WebAccess.
I would think this should work in a similar way that GroupWise gadgets work with i-Login, making calls back through WebAccess for specific results. I have looked on the http://developer.novell.com web site, but did not find anything specific to this. We are using GroupWise 6.

Dear Published Out: My suggestion to you would be to use WebPublisher. With WebPublisher, you don't need to have a login ID if you enable the WebPublisher Piece of WebAccess. I would suggest that you create a webpublisher user and share the documents you want available on the web with that user.
Since each document stored in WebPublisher has a unique URL, just build a link to that from any web page. When someone clicks on that link, it will automatically open the document in a window.
