How does the iPhone facebook-app handle private messages?

Question

In other threads like Send private messages to friends it says that you can't send private messages to other facebook users via Graph API, which is also what I find out reading the official API.

But the iPhone facebook-app (which uses the Graph API, correct me if that's wrong) supports sending private messages, so I was wondering how they accomplished to do this. Does anyone know that?

Facebook's iPhone app, being official, has access to unreleased APIs that normal developers do not.

Thank you. Do you have any further information about these unreleased APIs? – kohlehydrat Mar 08 '11 at 15:33

It's hard enough to find good documentation on Facebook's **released** APIs. Heh. – ceejayoz Mar 08 '11 at 15:43
