[python-win32] PyIMAPISession && IID_IMAPIAdviseSink

[Arn Vollebregt]

I have made an attempt at implementing the Advise function for
PyIMsgStore, as you will find attached. However, following the trend
thusfar, onNotify() still is not called. Am I on the wrong path here, or
am I still missing something?

Regards,

Arn Vollebregt

P.S.: In my previous email I was claiming the Advise function should also
be available for PyIMAPIFolder, but this is not the case:
