mapi — Message Application Programming Interface
MAPI is a programming language API for storing and exchanging messages, contacts and calendars.
The MAPI data model is a hierarchial one, similar to LDAP or a filesystem.
A store is a container for a tree-based hierarchy of objects, similar to a filesystem. Each object in the hierarchy has an identifier by which it can be referred to, the so-called entry ID. The entry ID is unique within the scope of a store and can be thought of something like a filesystem's inode number.
Each object can have a number of attributes (key-value pairs), so-called properties.
