There is a lot of free code around that does this, in the sense that MSG
files are OLE2 compound documents.
http://poi.apache.org/poifs/index.html provides the necessary code, and
other projects (mentioned in the POI docs) work in the same area. As
Julien said, this feels well out of scope for libmapi utils. libmapi
isn't trying to provide an Outlook interop kit.

However, there is something interesting here. 
A set of Outlook-related utilities that worked with OpenChange utilities
would be useful to many. 

For example, a utility that can read mapidump data and generate MSG or
PST.  In the realm of all-the-pieces-are-functional-today consider
libpst (http://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30390/47/readpst.1.html
) which could be used to read a pst file and then upload it to a mailbox
on an Exchange server.
