[python-win32] PyIMAPISession && IID_IMAPIAdviseSink

[Arn Vollebregt]

Ah, I found out why the fnevNewMail event doesnt fire: Advise is only
implemented for PyIMAPISession and PyIMAPITable, and not (for example) for
PyIMsgStore and PyIMAPIFolder. The later are the only objects which
receive fnevNewMail: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc840027.aspx

Will this by any chance be implemented in the near future? Reading C++ is
one thing, but I doubt I'll be able to implement this myself. It looks to
me like a simple copy/paste action isnt going to cut it, going by the code
(difference) in PyIMAPISession.cpp and PyIMAPITable.cpp
