Download - Update

Hello,

unfortunately our account at 4shared was deactivated because we didn't sign in for more than 30 days. So all files was removed. Sorry. I reactivated the account and uploaded at least the Dll again.
Now you can download the whole package as a zip-file. The package includes the dll, source code, manual and sample application.

MsgReader_dll.zip

PS.: If anyone knows a got filesharing platform without such kind of restrictions please inform to us. Thank you.

MsgViewer 0.2.0

Hello all out there,

today we "released" the version 0.2.0 of our MsgViewer.
As already known the tool is free for non-commercial use. Please try it and give us some feedback. Thank you.

(1) Binary download (make sure that you have correct security settings for NET Framework)
(2) MSI installer download

PS.: You need at least .Net Framework 1.1 which is not included in the downloads

Version 0.1

Hello,

today we "released" a first trial version for everybody who wants to test the SW. Still we are using some components developed by other users e.g. Endanmo.OleStorage. Other components are mainly visual components which will be replaced step by step.
In addition we are thinking about a .NET Library which makes it possible to read data out of MSG-Files.

Ok - this is the our first version (you can try and test it for free in case of non commercial usage)
. Still there are several bugs inside but we are working on it :-)

MsgViewer the 1st

Dear All,

this is the first time for me to make such kind of "waste of time stuff". I'm actually to busy to do blogging but to get some feedback or good hints I will do it ;-)
Ok, let's start with the real topic - the MsgViewer -

The tool which we (Greenwood and myself) are developing is an Outlook MSG-file viewer (you don't need outlook). The plan is to sell it (with source code) and to publish the SW + source code for none commercial issues for free.
Oh, before I forget - we really have to thank the whole C# community for the nice hints and especially the OutlookCode.com :: share code page users.

Ok - here is a first screenshot of our tool:


I think it's looking not so bad - still there are bugs inside but we are working on it. The following functions are implemented:

• select path from file system
• add paths to private (user favorites) and global (group/department) favorites
• searching over subject, mail body and dates + quick search over mail subjects
• indexing to have faster access to huge amounts of msg-files (index is also used for quick search)
• uncompress compressed RTF message body
• attachment handling (msg-file attachments are not yet supported - we are working on it)
• support of Asian characters
• "sort" attachments and place it at the correct position at the mail body + show correct file type icon (read out from windows system)

Well - thats all for now.
If you have any questions, improvement ideas, ... don't hesitate to contact us.

Bye
Soeren
