When a transport provider encounters a submitted message with the PR_CORRELATE property set to TRUE, it sets the PR_CORRELATE_MTSID property to the MTS identifier for that message. Following transmission, PR_CORRELATE_MTSID is stored with the message in the interpersonal message (IPM) Sent Items folder.
Messaging systems that support correlation by MTS identifier, such as X.400, retain the identifier as part of the transport envelope of the original message and also of any reports generated in response to it. When a report is delivered from such a messaging system, the transport provider sets PR_CORRELATE_MTSID to the original MTS identifier from the report's transport envelope. PR_CORRELATE_MTSID is then stored with the report.
A client application can maintain a search-results folder of all messages having a PR_CORRELATE_MTSID property. When a report comes in for such a message, the client can apply restrictions to the search-results folder, find the original version of the message, and correlate the original message information with the new information.
