Dear All,

I am trying to write a utility to open a .msg file using
CreateItemFromTemplate then use the SafeMailItem in Redemption to extract
the headers. This would work fine except the .msg file is encrypted and I
don't have the digital ID necessary to decrypt it. Thus, the
CreateItemFromTemplate function is throwing an exception.

There must be a way to do this, since I am able to import my inbox to
Outlook Express and view the headers on the encrypted message.

My guess of course is that I will have to use Extended MAPI to open the .msg
file and extract the headers. Unless of course Redemption has a special way
of opening .msg files. Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you very much,
Chad Langston
 
Actually Redemption does not care about the encrypted files; on the Extended
MAPI level, an encrypted messages has a special message class and a p7m
attachment. When importing an MSG file with encrypted contents
(SafeMailItem.Import), Redemption does not care about what kind of message
that is, so there won't be any prompts.
