Cause

The error message you’re encountering, AttributeError: type object 'aspose.email.mapi.MapiMessage' has no attribute 'from_file', indicates that the method from_file is not available in the MapiMessage class. This is likely due to a version mismatch or incorrect usage of the class.

Solution

To load a .msg file using the Aspose.Email library, you should use the Load method instead of from_file. Here’s how you can do it:

Code

from aspose.email.mapi import MapiMessage

# Load the MSG file
msg = MapiMessage.Load("message.msg")

# Accessing some properties
print("Subject: " + msg.Subject)
print("From: " + msg.SenderEmailAddress)
print("Body: " + msg.Body)

Ensure that you have the correct version of the Aspose.Email library installed that supports this method.

Next Steps

  1. Verify that you are using the latest version of the Aspose.Email library.
  2. If the issue persists, check the documentation for any updates or changes in method names.
  3. Test the provided code snippet to ensure it works as expected.
