storing data
-
I'm currently in the planning stage for an email client written with .NET. I was hoping for some suggestions as to a way to store the email related data: email itself, contact info, etc. This may be a really question, but I've never attempted anything like this before, so any help/comments would be greatly appreciated.:) -Sean

For storing the mail, mbox and mdir are two of the most popular formats. You can search on the net for more info on each of them. As for the contact info, it is best to go with the standard vcard format. Look here for more info http://www.imc.org/pdi/[^]. The imc.org site has all the RFCs and standard track documents related to email, MIME, S/MIME, etc. Is the mail client for your own project or your company?
