Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1865: ----------------------------------- Good to hear from you, [~lfcnassif]! I've only looked at this very briefly, but it looks like POI does not currently make the sender email address available. I think the best next step would be to figure out how to modify POI to make this info available. Any interest in looking into this? I did see that the email address exists _sometimes_ in the header {{From:}}, and we could pull it out via regex, but several of our test MSG files clearly have the sender email in the bytes but have no headers. > Save sender email address in Outlook MSG metadata > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-1865 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1865 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: parser > Affects Versions: 1.11 > Environment: Windows 7 x64, jre 1.8.0_60 x64 > Reporter: Luis Filipe Nassif > > Sender email address is lost when extracting metadata from Outlook msg files. > Currently only sender name is extracted.
