I am a little puzzled by the question on this list, as Outlook isn't 
exactly part of any Debian distribution I know :-)

Anyway, if you want to extract any files that are in the msg file in 
Debian, just pipe it through a utility like munpack, metamail or
uudeview (probably the most comprehensive general purpose decoder).

Hi,
You may find a start here: 
http://members.aol.com/donnaskani/filetypes.html. They give staff for 
$M, but it should be easy to find linux equivalent.

Thanks to the good people in Microsoft, a great deal of the data
that flows is dependent on one company. That is not a healthy
ecosystem. The issue is that creativity gets filtered through the
business plan of one company.
