3/12/2014

The IFolder interface exposes properties and methods for creating and accessing individual Pocket Outlook Object Model (POOM) items, and for sending them over an infrared link. Outlook Mobile provides the following default folders: Contacts, Tasks, Appointments, and Infrared. You can use all of them except the infrared folder to create and access individual POOM items. You can use the infrared folder only to send items over the infrared (IR) port.
