Looking at the source, it seems to extract/process raw text mail bodies and attachments, even if you set up the parsing to recurse down only one level. And to get the relationship between a mail and its attachs, I think you will need to monitor the handler output currently. I think the parser could be improved to set a parent mail id into the metadata of its attachs and vice versa to make easier to recover the relationships.

You could use Tika app's -z | --extract feature to extract all attachments before ingesting into Solr...that would be a preprocessing step before running Solr's DIH. One problem with that approach is that embedded docs within an .msg file will be extracted into separate files... Another option if you wanted to work on this programmatically would be to send via ParseContext a custom EmbeddedDocumentExtractor or a ParserDecorator. You'd have to be careful to ensure that it only goes down one level. The default behavior would be to run that extractor/decorator against all embedded documents individually including attachments to .msg files, which you may or may not want.

Is there some way to proceed here without requiring libpst be mavenized? Certainly. The only thing we'd need is to have the library available as a dependency on the central repository (otherwise we can't push out a Tika release with such a dependency). This requires no changes to the upstream library, just some extra metadata and appropriate -sources and -javadoc jars to accompany to the upload. See https://docs.sonatype.org/display/Repository/Uploading+3rd-party+Artifacts+to+The+Central+Repository for details. Anyone can volunteer to take care of this. See for example https://groups.google.com/d/topic/tagsoup-friends/vIUe_jSR5YQ/discussion for a thread where I volunteered and did this for a recent release of the TagSoup library.

By no means do I want to take the glory or the project away from Richard, but it is one of the keys for FreeEed's adoption in Windows.

[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-623) Add support for Outlook PST

I might be able to handle the Parser, although it'll probably have to wait until the library author makes a new relicensed release available.

If you do get it working, please list it on the wiki: http://wiki.apache.org/tika/3rd%20party%20parser%20plugins If you need help with developing the plugin, please ask on the dev list. You might also be interested in looking at the relatively small patch that was all that was required to enable JTNEF (GPL) to be used as a Tika plugin: https://github.com/jukka/jtnef/commit/a9a51982165101c0bdda4cb5266d7f8958c271ef Add support for Outlook PST --- Key: TIKA-623 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-623 Project: Tika Issue Type: New Feature Components: parser Reporter: Tran Nam Quang Hello everyone, As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST file.

I could ask the author to change the license or switch to dual-licensing... The basic parser is already listed as an example on the front page of the java-libpst website, by the way.

Also messages are printed to System.out. - The RTF compression decoder uses new String(byte[]) without charset - locale dependent! Other places do this, too. This is broken, as the file format should define the charset.
