You should probably be looking at the MAPI (Mail API). I've briefly tried working with it, and I need to revisit it, but it will let you loop through all the accounts on the phone (SMS, MMS, ActiveSync, + any user created email accounts). I'm not sure how to do it in managed code... but I would suspect it's a bit easier than the native code that I was playing with.

Hi Snoz

can you provide code in the language you have written.

i'll try to convert that into managed code.

its very very urgent for me.


thanx

I think it was these MSDN articles that I was following and copying code from:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/ppc_2002.asp
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/ppc_2002part2.asp
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/ppc_2002part3.asp

Here is another article:

Saw a post on MoDaCo (where you also posted this question) which linked to a blog. This looks like it could help you:

Hi snoz

the link
http://windowsmobilepro.blogspot.com/2006/02/how-to-programmatically-query-mail.html

is very useful for us. but we need the same functionality in c#.net.

if you find any such articles please post here.

we will try to implement that in c#.net.
