See also http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/task_pwi.php and
http://www.synce.org/index.php/ISF is probably used for the
hand-drawings.
Please keep us posted with your progress!

Actually "Khamael" in #synce mentioned this today. My reply was:
"Personally I wouldn't bother with mail support for pre-WM5 devices;
it's a mess to reverse engineer, IIRC"
But I'm a lazy dude with other projects, so don't pay to much attention
to the above... :-)
If you really want to dig into this, I suggest you look att Microsoft's
MAPI (Messaging Application Programming Interface) because it's quite
probable that the data transmitted via RRAC is a serialization of the
data used by the IMessage et.al COM objects.
Good luck!
