Remarks

The PR_DISPLAY_TYPE property contains a long integer that facilitates special treatment of the table entry based on its type. This special treatment typically consists of displaying an icon, or other display element, associated with the display type.

PR_DISPLAY_TYPE is not used in folder contents tables. Client applications should use a message s PR_MESSAGE_CLASS12U4DE1 property and appropriate IMAPIFormInfo2B5FZNT interface to get the PR_ICON49R2_3N and PR_MINI_ICONT_R3YP properties for that message.

PR_DISPLAY_TYPE can have exactly one of the following values:

DT_AGENT

An automated agent, such as Quote-Of-The-Day or a weather chart display.

DT_DISTLIST

A distribution list.

DT_FOLDER

Display default folder icon adjacent to folder.

DT_FOLDER_LINK

Display default folder link icon adjacent to folder rather than the default folder icon.

DT_FOLDER_SPECIAL

Display icon for a folder with an application-specific distinction, such as a special type of public folder.

DT_FORUM

A forum, such as a bulletin board service or a public or shared folder.

DT_GLOBAL

A global address book.

DT_LOCAL

A local address book that you share with a small workgroup.

DT_MAILUSER

A typical messaging user.

DT_MODIFIABLE

Modifiable; the container should be denoted as modifiable in the user interface.

DT_NOT_SPECIFIC

Does not match any of the other settings.

DT_ORGANIZATION

A special alias defined for a large group, such as helpdesk, accounting, or blood-drive coordinator.

DT_PRIVATE_DISTLIST

A private, personally administered distribution list.

DT_REMOTE_MAILUSER

A recipient known to be from a foreign or remote messaging system.

DT_WAN

A wide area network address book.

 

Address book contents tables use the DT_AGENT, DT_DISTLIST, DT_FORUM, DT_MAILUSER, DT_ORGANIZATION, DT_PRIVATE_DISTLIST, and DT_REMOTE_MAILUSER values. Address book hierarchy tables and one-off tables use the DT_GLOBAL, DT_LOCAL, DT_MODIFIABLE, DT_NOT_SPECIFIC, and DT_WAN values. Folder hierarchy tables use the DT_FOLDER, DT_FOLDER_LINK, and DT_FOLDER_SPECIAL values.

If PR_DISPLAY_TYPE is not set, the client should assume the default type appropriate for the table, typically DT_FOLDER, DT_LOCAL, or DT_MAILUSER.
