The API is the JavaDocs. [1] The module you're looking for to read MSG files is likely HSMF. This is a relatively immature module, so may be missing certain functionality. Modules become more mature due to contributions and interest from users and developers.
There are usage examples in the poi-examples [2] package, in the unit tests, and on the quick guide, [3], which is currently in need of contributions to help people get started. If you're willing to contribute some examples of common things someone may want to do with an Outlook message database or a single message, such as extract an attachment, get message headers, extract message body, or accumulate a list of all recipients, we'd be happy to add them to the quick guide, as this is probably the first thing people look for when trying to learn how to solve their problem using POI. I hope this helps!
