NOTIFKEY
The NOTIFKEY
structure uniquely identifies a connection between an advise sink, an advise
source, and MAPI. MAPI uses the NOTIFKEY structure for generating
notifications to the appropriate advise sink about the appropriate advise source.

Members
cb
Count of
bytes in the ab member.
ab
Array of
bytes describing the notification key.
Remarks
Service
providers generate notification keys when their Advise method is called
and they want to call IMAPISupport::Subscribe12ZZE25 to handle the notification registration
and the subsequent sending of notifications. A notification key can be the
entry identifier of the advise source or it can be any other identifying item
such as a constant. For example, a message store provider might use the path of
a folder as its notification key.
The
notification key should work across multiple processes.
