IMAP Reading Outlook (.msg) attachments

Hello Friends,

I am having trouble trying to read an outlook message attachment (.msg extension). I cannot see any reference to it from the email structure as you can with any other attachments.

Just to clear things up, the email attachment is usually an email from the outlook mailbox which has been attached to an outgoing email and can only (as far i know) be open by other outlook client.

Any ideas would be great!

Kind Regards,
Alex

Looks like you'll have to read it in and decode it yourself. Take a look at this: http://www.fileformat.info/format/outlookmsg/
