Note
The replication state machine is a deterministic state machine. A client departing from one state to another must eventually return to the former from the latter.
Description
This state initiates uploading an Outlook item (mail, calendar, contact, task, note, or journal) that is new or has been moved to the current folder, or that has been modified. Outlook initializes the correpsonding UPMSG data structure with the appropriate information for the item as being added, moved, or modified.
If the item has been added or moved, the client then appropriately adds or updates the item on the server.
If the item has been modified, Outlook further specifies in the UPMSG data structure whether the modifications are in a message header (in which case the item is the message header), in the item properties, or in the item itself that requires conflict resolution. The client then updates the item on the server.
When the item upload ends, Outlook notes that the message has been uploaded, so that it will not be processed in a subsequent upload. The local store returns to the upload table state.
