Luís Filipe Nassif commented on TIKA-4250:
------------------------------------------
We can improve our wrapper, for sure. But I would suggest taking a look at
libpff project, that was an awesome reverse engineering effort by Joachim Metz
when PST format was still closed source, and java-libpst was based on it,
although libpff doesn't miss thousands of emails and attachments with some
inputs...
> Add a libpst-based parser

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: Tim Allison
> Priority: Major
>
> We currently use the com.pff Java-based PST parser for PST files. It would be
> useful to add a wrapper for libpst as an optional parser.
> One of the benefits of libpst is that it creates .eml or .msg files from the
> PST records. This is critical for those who want the original bytes from
> embedded files. Obv, PST doesn't store eml or msg, but some users want the
> "original" emails even if they are constructed from PST records.
