Hi, I am new to PocketPC 2003. I am trying to Programmaticaly:

a) read the documents in the InBox (Received mail),
b) delete the documents from the InBox.
c) place a document in the Outbox to be sent when the user synchronize
the PDA.

I am using .Net CF.

What is the best way to do this?
Is this part of the POOM API?

Any hints/tips are appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
 
You'll need to wrap MAPI (A COM based API so you can't call it directly from
NETCF). There was a com wrapping sample on GotDotNet which you could use for
reference - you currently have to create a native code dll to wrap the COM
control and expose static methods.

Thanks,

Can you tell me what is the dll name for MAPI?
Can you point me to examples using MAPI on PPC for reading the inbox (C or
C++)
Will there ever be Managed support for this task?

Peter, I have just realized that you are the author of InTheHand
PocketOutlook Component. Is it possible for the PocketOutlook Component to
provide this functionality? Is it a matter of changing the folder name or is
more complicated than that?
