nn::Result

Creates a MessageBox. An inbox and outbox are created within the message box. Any message set in the outbox is automatically sent during StreetPass communication, and any received data is stored in the inbox.

MessageBox objects are created in NAND memory. Only one box may be created for each application. Only 12 boxes may be created in total. Attempting to create a new message box when 12 already exist will not create a new box.

The privateId and hmacKey values are used to restrict access. The privateId value is the key needed to open a message box, and is intended to be limited to one system. The hmacKey value is a key common to all instances of an application, and is used to prevent data tampering and application spoofing. This key is stored in the message box. Set a shared key of the appropriate range if you need to access the same message box from multiple save data files or applications.
