[jira] [Resolved] (TIKA-2122) Extract all email headers from Outlook .msg files into Metadata

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2122?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tim Allison resolved TIKA-2122.
-------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

Went with {{Message:Raw-Header:}} as the prefix.  I ran this against 1.7k .msg files we had in our regression corpus.  There are some small areas for improvement, but, overall this looks good.  I was able to reuse mime4j's {{DecoderUtil.decodeEncodedWords}} to handle encoded values.

> Currently most email headers are not added to the Metadata when extracting Outlook .msg files.
> http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/tika/trunk/tika-parsers/src/main/java/org/apache/tika/parser/microsoft/OutlookExtractor.java
> The headers - {{msg.getHeaders()}} - are already being looped through as a way to estimate the date.
> All headers should be added to Metadata, using the name of the header with a prefix such as {{"raw-header:"}}
