1)use tika to index .msg files (Tika does support Microsoft outlook format and I am already using Tika: http://lucene.apache.org/tika/formats.html). 2)while indexing you'll have to write handler to extract To, CC, Bcc values and store it in a separate field in index. 3)when user searches on .msg files, compare if s/he is in To, Cc, Bcc field first before returning result to the page and filter results accordingly.
