Message Class and Folder assignment

[Guest]

Hello,

I am trying to map a message class to a folder. Is there away to
–automatically- have messages get routed to a folder for a specific type of
message class? In other words, I have a message class from a specific
provider (IPM.Note.CustomClass) that is received by Outlook. Instead of the
message ending up in the inbox I would like to automatically end up in
another folder. I know I could capture an event and move the message to that
folder; but is there another way?

Thanks,
Tom –

At a level we can access using the Outlook object model everything comes
into Inbox and can be routed from there. I'm not sure if you can intercept
things before Inbox using Extended MAPI but that would be the only
possibility other than Inbox or if you wrote your own store provider (again
Extended MAPI).

Hi Ken,

I have written my own store provider. I originally created a transport that
was working like a charm, but my customer wanted their own store folder. I
then wrote the message store code. I am confused as to how to connect the
actual store (same DLL as transport provider) to a MAPI folder. If you have
any insight as to how to do that I would grealy appreciate it.

Thanks,
Tom -

Hi Ken,

I believe I found the proper procedure for what I am trying to accomplish in
MSDN -- "Opening a Message Store"

Thanks for your help.

IMsgStore::GetReceiveFolderTable and IMsgStore::GetReceiveFolder were
designed to do exactly that.

Thanks Dmitry - that is exactly what I needed to know. By the time I am done
with this provider I think will have experience with almiost every extended
MAPI interface.

Hi Dmitry,

I hope you can take a few minutes and tell me what I am doing wrong - it
would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried a variety of ways to change the message class on my store
folder from Outlook but I run into a road block with every approach. Again my
goal is that all messages from our provider will go to a specified folder in
our msg store. So Essenitally I have the following folder tree of

[-]MyMsgPST
----- Inbox


I am using the below code and every time I try to set the receive (inbox)
folder in my msg store with the new message class I get ACCESS DENIED. Am I
even close to the correct way to change the message class?

Thanks,
Tom

Hi Dmitry,

Never mind my last message - I found my bug which not providing the proper
access parameters.
