MFC provides classes that wrap two categories of Windows Extensions: Windows Sockets, for writing network communications programs, and the Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI), for client message application developers.
CHATTER is a Windows Sockets Client application. You can use CHATTER to send messages to a discussion server (CHATSRVR) which in turn sends them to multiple other CHATTER users simultaneously.
CHATSRVR is the discussion server for the CHATTER sample application.
The functionality in the MAPIPAD sample has been migrated to the NPP sample. NPP is an editor demonstrating toolbars, status bars, and other controls as well as the MAPI functionality.
