Interface Between any Email Client and Your Application

Mailbox SDK Overview
Mailbox SDK

Mailbox SDK is a collection of application programming interfaces (APIs) for handling tasks related to access to mailbox contents, like folders, emails, attached files of each types of mail program: MS Outlook, MS Outlook Express, Thunderbird and Eudora. You are using 5 simple MCore API functions, and get access to different types of mailboxes files. There is no difference with what email program your application works, you will not need to rewrite code, if instead of MS Outlook you decide to use Thunderbird.

The principle of MCore API interfaces it is universality - leads all email programs as a single, and your application using Mailbox SDK, just becomes universal and independent.

Mailbox SDK is the solution, which includes samples applications developed in C#, C++ and Delphi, so you can simply use a ready solution. If you do not find the fact that you need, please let us know and we will help you.

Mailbox SDK uses Mailbox concept to all files in which email programs store emails, such as for MS Outlook ‘PST’ files, for MS Outlook Express ‘DBX’ files. When you meet Mailbox word in our documentation, it should be understood that any file keeps mails known Mailbox.

How to use MCore API?

Allow as to offer you a few examples of samples:

Sample 1:Browsing folders and emails stored in the Mailbox files:

We propose to start familiarity with Mailbox SDK from consideration Mailbox Viewer applications executed on the basis of MCore API.

The essence of this example is the following: any email programs contains a hierarchy of folders with the emails and attaches. The folders and emails stored in the Mailbox file(s). Mailbox Viewer allows the user to select the Mailbox file location and view the contents.

We have implemented two examples of Mailbox Viewer:

Console VS C++ application:

 Mailbox SDK\Bin\MailView.exe

C# application:

 Mailbox SDK \Bin\OEView.exe

Win32 Delphi application:

 Mailbox SDK\Bin\MailboxViewer.exe

Source codes these examples and additional explanations to them you can find in the Mailbox SDK\Samples folder.

Sample 2: Store email copies in the files:

Example 2 illustrates Backup opportunities Mailbox SDK, the user specifies desired and the Mailbox folder which should be placed copies of the mail. The program retrieves all the mails and keeps them in separate files. (The mails are stored in Email RFC format).

An example of such a program is here: Mailbox SDK\Bin\MailboxBackup.exe

Source codes these examples and additional explanations to them you can find in the folder Mailbox SDK\Samples.

Sample 3: Convert MS Outlook file to Email files:

Example 2 illustrates messages type conversion futures. Please select any MS Outlook .PST file, and see how MCore library get all mail messages from the selected .PST file, convert them to EML format and store on disk drive.

An example of such a program is here: Mailbox SDK\Bin\PSTToEML.exe

Source codes these examples and additional explanations to them you can find in the folder Mailbox SDK\Samples.
