| Good day
|
| I have a list of 73 Non Delivery Reports s that bounced in outlook. I
| copied all these messages on my Vista Desktop and they are saved as
| .msg files. I want to extract all email addresses of these .msg files
| without having to open each and everyone of them..
|
| My first thought was to winscp those emails to my Ubuntu server and
| then do something like cat *.msg | grep -I @ > /tmp/bounced.txt
|
| Pronlem is that it seems the .msg files are all binary files and I seem
| to be unable to o run such a command. Is there any command line tools
| in Ubuntu that would let me do that?
|
| Thanks.

Found a few suggestions here
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=473810
and a tutorial here
http://wiki.sabayonlinux.org/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Read_Microsoft_Outlook_.MSG_files_in_Linux
But my suggestion would be to check these
http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/exchange-configure.html.en
and
http://www.ghacks.net/2010/04/27/connect-evolution-to-exchange-2007-mapi/
iamme at thishost:~$ aptitude search exchange mapi | grep evolution

iamme at thishost:~$
Hope this helps ...
