I've just finished the framework of the Message Transport. I started over when someone (maybe that was Charles? I can't find the email now) pointed me to a much better, and recent, MessageTransport provider example on one of the MDSN blogs. It had a few advantages: cleaner code, modern code, well documented. I think my new version will also have fewer copyright issues, if any, because none of the actual code was copied verbatim (though I used their logging system, but that's somewhat easy to replace once this is installed in the OpenConnector codebase).

I'm at the point where Outlook starts up, tells it to flush its inbound and outbound messages, and then it seems to shutdown. I'd like to watch the status change, and I've implemented a MAPIStatus subclass, but I'm not sure where in Outlook I can actually observe the status of the message transport, and what state its in (part of the status row includes human-readable text associated with the current status code).

Starting next week, I'll be working on adding CalDAV calls to the code. If anyone has more insights into how Outlook deals with calendar data, especially in terms of addressability, this is the time to share them. :) The only thing we suspect at this point is that they are CDO objects, but I haven't seen Outlook ever try to send them through a Message Transport. That may be a function of where the transport is placed in the MAPISVC file... haven't tried playing with that yet.
