Creating a dynamic temporary folder (Store?)

[Brian Graham]

Hi, Currently I have an add in that allows users to profile emails to a
database by dragging and dropping the emails onto folders that I display in a
separate Custom Task Pane.

It would be a lot neater if I could create a store(?) that is not a PST file
and dynamically create the folders and possibly even mail items in there on
start-up.

I have seen some other document management systems do something similar to
this so my question is can this be done in c# .Net VSTO 3.0 with Outlook 2007?

Thanks in advance
Brian

You will need to wwrite a store provider, this is as Extdended MAPi as it
getsm which means no .Net.
Why can't you create your own PST store (Namespace.AddStore)?

Hi Dmitry,

I have thought about it, it was just the syncronization that was putting me
off. I just wanted to check out the store provider route first. Does
Redemption include anything around store providers?

No, Redemption won't help you with writing MAPI providers unfortunately.
