A list of the hierarchy and content changes exported from and imported to a public folder. Using the synchronization state, the synchronizer can send any necessary delete requests for, and prevent duplicate exports of already exported data. This mechanism also lets the information store track imported data to prevent duplicate imports and re-exporting of imports. The developer of the synchronization system must choose a format for storing synchronization state information designed for use by both the collector and the synchronizer. The synchronization state should be supported through the Win32 IStream interface.
