@Nitin:
I am a bit doubtful on this one, since MAPI is not used for Outlook communication - ideally RPC is used for that purpose. Correct me on this if i'm wrong.
2) where is the office out look address book stored ?
I probably mistook this for offline address book - for which i answered the question, this is stored locally
with format .PAB on your local box.

(Mail API) A programming interface from Microsoft that enables a client application to send to and receive mail from Exchange Server or a Microsoft Mail (MS Mail) messaging system.
==========================
MAPI = Messaging Application Programming Interface, the heart of Microsoft's messaging programs. Extended MAPI serves three main purposes:
* It's the programming interface used to write components that connect to different mail servers, provide access to custom address books and provide rich storage facilities -- in other words, the components that you can add through see on the Tools | Services dialog in Outlook.
* You can use MAPI to develop new types of custom forms, not based on the built-in Outlook forms.
* You can create addins for Outlook, Exchange and Windows Messaging that extend the functionality of those clients.
