S60 3rd Edition: Creating Custom Message Type Modules (with Example)
Download this C++ document and code example to learn how to create Message Type Modules (MTMs) for S60 3rd Edition and later releases. The target audience is e-mail developers implementing their own e-mail protocol (for example, Push e-mail service), where preinstalled S60 platform e-mail MTMs (POP3, IMAP4) cannot be used. The package demonstrates how to develop and install an MTM, how to create an account (mailbox), how to create a simple viewer/editor implemented as a server application, how to provide support to send from other applications, and how to receive notifications of new messages. Message sending and receiving are echoed locally. Note that Symbian platform security imposes heavy capability requirements for MTMs (up to ALL -TCB capabilities) and thus the application has to be signed using the Manufacturer Approved Developer Certificate.

S60 Platform: End-to-End Device Management Example
This example adds device management features to the earlier published Symbian OS: End-to-End HTTP API Example. It demonstrates how to implement a simple DM adapter in the S60 2nd and 3rd Edition devices that interact with a device management server, how to set up and use a custom DM server, how to store and update the data received from the DM server and to make the data available to another application. The example has been implemented using freely available back-end components (Apache, Funambol, and JBoss servers; MySQL database). The package consists of S60 client applications, WebUI components for JSP and PHP, and user account scripts for MySQL. Documentation for configuring the system is included in the package.

S60 3rd Edition: Device Management Plug-in
This package contains two header files that you can use for implementing a device management plug-in adapter to S60 3rd Edition devices. Note that the header files are not part of the official S60 3rd Edition SDK and they are subject to change (which may cause a binary compatibility break in the future). Documentation is included in the package: S60 3rd Edition: Implementing Device Management Plug-in Adapter and Device Management Plug-in API Specification. You need to accept a licence agreement before downloading the plug-in.
