Working with MapiNote in PST

Adding MapiNote to PST

Create a New PST File and Add Subfolders showed how to create a PST file and add a subfolder to it. With Aspose.Email you can add a MapiNote to the Notes subfolder of a PST file that you have created or loaded. To add a MapiNote to a PST:

1. Create a template MapiNote using Microsoft Outlook and save it as an MSG file.
2. Load the saved MSG note into a MapiMessage object.
3. Create a MapiNote object and load the template MSG note.
4. Set the MapiNote properties.
5. Create a PST using the PersonalStorage.Create() method.
6. Create a pre-defined folder (Notes) at the root of the PST file by accessing the root folder and then calling the AddMapiMessageItem() method.

The following code snippet shows you how to create a MapiNote and then add it to the notes folder of a newly created PST file.
