you might be interested to add facebook inbox manipulation functionality for your next app. I did the same few days back. Thought it could save a good amount of time for you! if you like it say it plz share it with others.
This class can be used to access the inbox of Facebook users. It can use the Facebook Inbox API to perform several types of operations to access the inbox of a given Facebook user. Currently it can get information about the mailbox folder, get information about the message threads, get the list of unread threads, search the inbox for a given keyword, retrieve a given message.
