-------------------------------------------------------------

Cool! I'll start writing the Tika parser as soon as I can. Could take a couple 
of days though.

Richard, I have one question regarding the API: PSTMessage has two methods, 
getDescriptorNodeId() and getInternetMessageId(). Both return identifiers, 
apparently. My question is: Which one is an unique identifier that will never, 
ever change? Cause I wouldn't want the Tika parser to extract identifiers that 
are "internal-only" and not unique.

Btw, maybe it's a good idea to also clarify this in the Javadoc.

> Hello everyone,
> As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST 
> file. There's a relatively new Java library called java-libpst for reading 
> Outlook PST files. It is licensed under the LGPL and available over here: 
> http://code.google.com/p/java-libpst/
> I have tested the library on Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, with good 
> results. It would be great if the library could be integrated into Tika.
> Best regards
> Tran Nam Quang
