Reading SMS on SP2003 in C#

| Dave Shaw 2005-10-15, 6:58 pm |
| Hi,
I am trying to create an app to read all the SMS's in the SMS Folders
on the SmartPhone 2003, so that I can create a backup of my SMS's. I
have found some useful articles on MSDN but I cannot find and decent C#
implementations.
Has anyone managed todo this?
Thanks in advance,
Dave Shaw.

you can read the messages using MAPI in native code, Alexs link shows
how to intercept them as they arrive. but you want to interate though
after they have arrived.
To do a *true* backup, you need to open the databases using the CEDB
interfaces, you then need to reverse engineer the format that MS uses -
bottom line. proper backup is _hard_, hence why very few apps do it
right (including activesync)

| This library will give you read access to the email and sms folders (but not
in the evaluation version).
