The IMAPISession::PrepareForm method creates a numeric token to be used by the IMAPISession::ShowForm method to access a message.
HRESULT PrepareForm(
LPCIID lpInterface,
LPMESSAGE lpMessage,
ULONG FAR * lpulMessageToken
);
The IMAPISession::PrepareForm method creates a message token for the message pointed to by the lpMessage parameter and calls the message's IUnknown::AddRef method. This token is passed in the ulMessageToken parameter to IMAPISession::ShowForm.
If the call to PrepareForm succeeds, release the message pointed to by lpMessage by calling its IUnknown::Release method before calling ShowForm. Failure to release the message before calling ShowForm can cause memory leaks.
