The InfoStore object provides access to its interpersonal message folder hierarchy through the RootFolder property, which returns the Folder object that represents the root of the IPM subtree. To access the root folder of the entire message store, first obtain its identifier with the FolderID property of the IPM root folder, and then call the Session object's GetFolder method.
You can obtain any InfoStore object available to this session with the Item property of the InfoStores collection. You can also retrieve an InfoStore object with a known identifier by calling the session's GetInfoStore method.
