this is my first attempt to implement OOP. IS this class ok?(in terms of structure)
AND another Question:
there are some folders in message application in Symbian phones
and sometimes there are up to 1000 messages in each folders.
I do itterate over all messages for gathering their info about sender/reciever/etc
but its very slow to use this clas for every folder.
how can I make a class that prevents me from itteratin over and over?
some info:
a messaging folder accessed from python returns a list of IDs from all of messages
for every ID there is a dict that contains info about that message.
