Hi all,

I am creating an application which needs to sync with outlook.
I need to sync email messages, appointments, tasks and contacts.

I am new to outlook programming, so it seemed to me that the easiest thing
to do is to register to folder and item events and respond to them.

I need to intercept email sending, receiving and deleting as well as
appointments, task and contact creation, change and deletion.

I tried outlook object model and extended MAPI. But none provided a coherent
way to determine which objects are deleted. Turned out the events do not
convey enough information. I read many articles regarding the problems with
this. However I do know there are applications that support the above
features.  

What is the best strategy to have in order to support the events for the
synchronization?

Will MAPI33, Redemption or any other library can help make the solution
easier, beter of faster?

Thanks in advance,

Dani
