Uwe Schindler commented on TIKA-623:
------------------------------------
>From looking at the code of this library, it looks that it needs some
>improvements/fixes:
- It catches all exceptions and instead of simply wrap'n'rethrow or declare the
checked exceptions in the methods, it prints the stack trace to System.out.
Also messages are printed to System.out.
- The RTF compression decoder uses new String(byte[]) without charset -> locale
dependent! Other places do this, too. This is broken, as the file format should
define the charset.
> Add support for Outlook PST

> Hello everyone,
> As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST
> file. There's a relatively new Java library called java-libpst for reading
> Outlook PST files. It is licensed under the LGPL and available over here:
> http://code.google.com/p/java-libpst/
> I have tested the library on Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, with good
> results. It would be great if the library could be integrated into Tika.
> Best regards
> Tran Nam Quang
