Hi,

I am trying to read the Messages in the Exchange Users MailBox. While
Opening the Folders[Inbox, Sent Items, etc, .... ] of the Users using
the following code

LPMDB mesgStore;

HRESULT hr = lpMAPISession->OpenMsgStore(0, lpcbEntryID,
(LPENTRYID)lppEntryID,NULL,
MAPI_BEST_ACCESS | MDB_NO_MAIL,
&mesgStore);

lppEntryID refers to the entry id of the user MailBox

HRESULT hr = mesgStore->OpenEntry(size, (LPENTRYID)entryID, NULL,
MAPI_BEST_ACCESS , &ulObjType,

(LPUNKNOWN *)&folder);

tempEntryID refers to the entry id of the particular folder in the
particular user MailBox,

The OpemEntry method fails with MAPI_E_CALL_FAILED error.....

Any suggestions why the function fails with this error .....

How many messgaes do you open prior to receiving this error? How many?
Around 250?
Do you release the messages that you opened before?

Hi Dmitry,

Yes, I forget to release the folder before I have opened. After
releasing that folder resolves this issue. On the other note it was
happening for the 50th Folder.

Thanks

Hi Dmitry,

I wonder if you can help me: you say "do you release the messages" but I can't see any dispose method or anything like that...?

I have this problem - I iterate through the collection returned by GetEnumerator on the Folder.Items collection - I check certain values on each and maybe save them to a database like so.. (simplified)

System.Collections.IEnumerator ienumMailItems;
ienumMailItems = fProcess.Items.GetEnumerator();
while (ienumMailItems.MoveNext())
{
mi = (Redemption.RDOMail)ienumMailItems.Current;
SaveToDatabase(mi);
}

What do I need to do to release the message?

Thanks in advance,

Dominic
