Exception when using NotesStorageFacility

Aspose.Email Product Family
1

Using the following code and Aspose.Email 19.11 (it did it in 19.10 too) I get an exception. All the NSF files I have tried it on are quite old (circa 2008) so that might be a factor.

Code

		private static void IterateUsingAspose(string diskPath)
	{
		using (var nsf = new NotesStorageFacility(diskPath))
		{
			foreach (var eml in nsf.EnumerateMessages())
			{
				Console.WriteLine(eml.Subject);
				total++;
			}
		}
	}

Exception

System.OverflowException

HResult=0x80131516
Message=Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.
Source=Aspose.Email

Should that be EMAILNET rather than JAVA?

@phaselden,

You are absolutely right. I have associated the thread with ticket EMAILNET-39668. We will share the notification with you once the issue will be addressed.

Is there any update on this please? I tried 20.2 and it still seemed to have the issue.

@phaselden,

I have verified from our issue tracking system and like to share that tentative ETA for the issue is Aspose.Email for .NET 20.4. We request for your patience and will update you as soon as the issue will be fixed.

Hi, has this been addressed, or is there a workaround? It appears this error still comes up today, and cannot complete counting items within an NSF file. Thanks.

Hello @pwcreejay ,

Unfortunately, further support for the NSF format is not feasible due to the lack of a complete specification for this format. NSF is proprietary and closed, involving encryption algorithms that cannot be implemented without specific details. Our current NSF implementation is therefore quite limited. In general, certain issues may arise in the following cases: the file was created in Notes version 7 or later, or data compression algorithms are used.

Thank you for understanding.
