Remarks

The NEWMAIL_NOTIFICATION structure is one of the members of the union of structures included in the info member of the NOTIFICATION structure. When the info member of a NOTIFICATION structure contains a NEWMAIL_NOTIFICATION structure, the ulEventType member of the NOTIFICATION structure is set to fnevNewMail.

MAPI uses the NEWMAIL_NOTIFICATION structure only as a member of the NOTIFICATION structure, which holds information about a notification event for the advise sink.
