iluvadev / xstreader

XstReader is an open source viewer for Microsoft Outlook’s .ost and .pst files (also those protected by unknown password). You can view and inspect all content and export messages and attachments (also in .msg format). Written entirely in C#, with no dependency on any Microsoft Office components. This project is the evolution of Dijji's XstReader

xstreader's Issues

ANSI encoding issue

I'm using Japanese version of Microsoft Windows and Office.

(And I privately maintain some of PST reading libraries like pst-extractor (Node.js) and ruby-msg-nx (Ruby) at my private fork. They are no longer actively updated by original authors)

Although this ANSI encoding issue may be rare cases, I want workaround idea about this...

nonUnicodeCP932.zip

With XstReader.App

With Outlook 2013 Japanese version

As stated in screen shot, some texts are encoded in CP932.
This is an ANSI encoding which can be obtained by Encoding.Default.
Encoding.Default is environment dependent by Windows.
Thus non Japanese Windows will return another encoder other than CP932.

PidTagInternetCodepage looks very useful to decide code page of ANSI texts.
But this is not a good idea.
As posted sample nonUnicodeCP932.zip shows, some texts are messed up.

Why PidTagInternetCodepage is set to CP50220 (iso-2022-jp)?
As a conclusion, PidTagInternetCodepage is how mail was encoded, when Outlook received it. This is useful only when we write Reply or Forward. Send a reply/forward mail with same encoding that sender mail client has used.
And then Outlook delivers many properties from received mail. For example it is like Subject.
When it is converted to property, it is time to choice: ANSI (CP932 or such) or Unicode.

iso-2022-jp is 7-bit encoding.
Shift-JIS (CP932) is 8-bit encoding. Using 0x80 ~ 0xFF. And default system locale of Japanese Windows is set to CP932.

Some of older SMTP server implementations were known to have compatibility issue for 8-bit binary.
Thus iso-2022-jp was preferred by many Japanese mail clients including Outlook.

Emails with Multiple Attachments with Same Name - Save All and Export All Problem

Thanks for updating this great project.

I've got some PSTs which contain emails that have multiple PDF attachments which have the same filename but they are different files with distinct content and different file sizes. Tthey're autogenerated out of a client's database and every one of them is named CFMS.getDocument.pdf. Outlook allows users to attach and send multiple attachments bearing the same name and it doesn't complain about the duplicate names.

When I tell XstReader to export all attachments or to save all attachments, it only saves one of them and not the others, apparently due to the name collision. There's no error or warning. It looks like I end up with the last of the attachment files in each instance, so I suspect the program is trying to save each of them and then overwriting each earlier one with the next file in sequence bearing the same name. Is there any way to add a "(1)" and "(2)" etc. onto the attachment filenames when there's a name collision?

I've confirmed this behavior is in the original 1.x version too.

mail format

I have questions about OST/PST, not the XST implementation

Do you know what is the best format to archive mails from OST? Because OST use idk what encoding and use RTF compression, so it's not handy at all to make in text search and to open it with other mail reader. Problem, there is a lot of format that exist to represent a mail. But I search for the format that preserve the most of the mail. Do Microsoft use a precise mail format that I can re use? What format do you advise?

Unhandled Exception: Invalid Cryptographic Message Type

I receive this error when accessing a folder which contains encrypted emails. I didn't receive the error in the original project by Dijji (RIP). The error:

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

OST to PST

Hi,
I am very sorry to hear original developer has died, and thanks for taking this on.
Do you have a way to export an ost to pst directly?

Export to MSG is not working

Hi,

Just tried the reader XstReader v.2.2.0 today and its looking good but I tried to export a folder of messages and ran into a problem.
The export to HTML is working well but the export to MSG is not working for me. The MSG files are created in my destination folder but when I try to import one of them (or all of them) to a mail program that can natively look at MSG files they are not opening.

I have tried Windows Live Mail 2012 and also the latest version of emClient.

The original OST file was from a hotmail account created in Outlook 2019

Is it possible to view the raw messages headers

Is it possible to browse and export the raw messages headers. These are the [RFC 2076] headers such as Received: from etc.

Exporting items to new PST

Good to know someone is maintaining https://github.com/Dijji/XstReader repo. Thanks for this.
I have doubt, though I have not checked all the functionalities yet, but I am curious to know is there any way we can export messages to a new PST.

Virus detection

Panda antivirus detect a virus "W32/Exploit.gen"
Nothing is detected on the version of Dijji.

Search Function Removed?

I have downloaded the latest release and the new user interface and extra features are very useful but I have noticed that I cannot find the search box anywhere to search the current folder. Has it been removed? It was a vital feature that I relied on.

This is a screenshot of the old version that shows the feature I was using:

Thank you.

Unhandled Exception

When clicking on a folder inside an OST, the following exception is shown. The Folder seems to contain 639 objects and the file is localized in german.

Thanks in advance for any help or input!
