How, via MAPI, can I get the entry id of the Recoverable Items\Deletions folder on Exchange 2010?

[Carey Klenetsky]

I have a MAPI-based application that receives notifications when messages are created/moved/deleted. With Exchange 2010, hard-deleted (via Outlook) messages now generate a message move notification. Using MFCMAPI I was able to figure out that the message was moving to a new folder called, Deletions, which lives underneath "Recoverable Items". That lives underneath the root container. I need to programatically find the entry id for this folder and ignore moves to this folder, but I do not know how to go about doing so. For some of the other folders there are properties such as PR_FINDER_ENTRYID and PR_IPM_OUTBOX_ENTRYID, but I have not found a value to use to retrieve the id of these new folders.

Has anyone been able to do this?

Thanks,
