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

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-623?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13160838#comment-13160838 ]

----------------------------------------

Mark, visiting the github link to the project results in 404 Not Found... Are you still working on this? PST support would be surely a nice addition to Tika, so to answer your question, yes please continue :) It doesn't have to be ideal, but as soon as it's in Maven then it's more likely that the Tika parser glue that Tran created can be fleshed out and added.

> Hello everyone,
> As you might know, Outlook stores its mails and other stuff in a single PST file. There's a relatively new Java library called java-libpst for reading Outlook PST files. It is licensed under the LGPL and available over here: http://code.google.com/p/java-libpst/
> I have tested the library on Outlook 2000 and Outlook 2003, with good results. It would be great if the library could be integrated into Tika.
> Best regards
> Tran Nam Quang
