Matthew Caruana Galizia commented on TIKA-2280:
-----------------------------------------------
OK, so this is a duplicate then. Your proposed strategy in your penultimate
comment makes sense to me. We have a larger corpus of about 1 million MSG
files. I could test your fix on that and report the results.
> message_from not extracted from Outlook emails
> ----------------------------------------------

> Key: TIKA-2280
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2280
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.14
> Reporter: Matthew Caruana Galizia
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: email, outlook, poi
>
> While the MESSAGE_FROM metadata field is extracted for both RFC and Outlook
> emails, it doesn't include the address for Outlook emails.
> For example, if the raw from field is "John Doe <[email protected]>", the
> Outlook email parser sets MESSAGE_FROM to "John Doe" while the RFC email
> parser sets it to "John Doe <[email protected]>".
> Currently I'm getting the from address from the RAW_HEADER_FROM field for
> Outlook emails, but it would be nice to be able to use a standard across
> email formats.
