Sample Application

SFEmail-PPC is an SFX plugin for the PocketPC 2002 platform that enables you to create new email messages that are placed in the outbox of the standard PocketPC 2002 Inbox application. SFEmail-PPC relies on a MailWrapper DLL from Effective Computer Solutions (ECS) in Australia to handle the mail creation operations, and provides an interface to the DLL's send mail function. This DLL was written for use with Microsoft Embedded VB, and SFEmail-PPC enables it to be used to send mail from SatForms.

You must purchase and install the ECS MailWrapper DLL onto the PocketPC 2002 device for SFEmail-PPC to work. If you try to use SFEmail-PPC on a device without having the MailWrapper DLL installed, you will receive an error result from the function call. To find out more about the ECS MailWrapper DLL and download a trial version, visit their website at http://www.ecspl.com.au. If you use the trial version of the MailWrapper DLL, you will see a registration notice when the function executes. When you purchase the DLL, ECS provides you with a registration key that you use as a parameter in SFEmail-PPC's SendEmail() function, preventing the registration notice from being displayed.

Once the email messages are placed in the outbox, they can be sent manually by launching the Inbox application and tapping on the Send/Receive icon, or they can be sent automatically at the next ActiveSync.
