Q: 

Can iPhone API access Mail/Messages/etc.?

My iPhone App needs to access messages (SMS), email and push events on apps. Is it possible with API?

Important enough - my app does not need to capture them in the background (I know this is impossible), but just when it's launched being able to load/aggregate/analyze them (for specific search/analytical purposes).

Thank you!

It is not possible on the current iPhone OS version (3.1).

This is not possible with the current APIs. Not allowed by Apple.
