Aspose Team,
We use the Aspose Email java package to get email body from msg and eml, and found out that it fails to get email body from the sample eml (Outlook displays email body).

Following is the sample code and attached is a sample file.
The operating system is Ubuntu 20.04. Java version is 17. Aspose Email java packages is 23.12.

import com.aspose.email.*;

public class GetEmailBody_28 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String inputMsg = “/home/ubuntu/winshare/00_Sample_Files/EML_No_Body_Bug_829061/T2.EM.00000070.eml”;
try {
new com.aspose.email.License().setLicense(“/home/ubuntu/QmulusWorker/required/Aspose.Total.Java.lic”);

        // Do not use the setting
        EmlLoadOptions emlLoadOptions = new EmlLoadOptions();
        MailMessage mailMessage = MailMessage.load(inputMsg, emlLoadOptions);
        MapiMessage mapiMessage =  MapiMessage.fromMailMessage(mailMessage, MapiConversionOptions.getUnicodeFormat());
        MapiMessage mapiMessage2 = MapiMessage.load(inputMsg);

        // Get email body
        if(mailMessage.isBodyHtml()){
            System.out.println("email body 1 = " + mailMessage.getHtmlBodyText(true));
        } else {
            System.out.println("email body 2 = " + mailMessage.getBody());
        }

        System.out.println("email body 3 = " + mapiMessage.getBody());
        System.out.println("email body 4 = " + mapiMessage.getBodyHtml());

        System.out.println("email body 5 = " + mapiMessage2.getBody());
        System.out.println("email body 6 = " + mapiMessage2.getBodyHtml());

        mailMessage.close();
        mapiMessage.close();
        mapiMessage2.close();
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
    }
}

}

Hello @xyang,

The eml you have provided does not conform to the MIME standard:

A message consists of header fields (collectively called “the header of the message”) followed, optionally, by a body.

The body is simply a sequence of characters that follows the header and is separated from the header by an empty line (i.e., a line with nothing preceding the CRLF).

The Aspose.Email MIME parser cannot detect the end of message header and the beginning of the message body.
