Hi Ajinath,


Could you please share your sample code read from this file as we are not able to get any message file from it. If possible, please extract the message from this file and share with us as EML so that we can add it directly to PST and investigate the issue further. We’ll look into it for assisting you further.

Hi Kashif ,



I have already added code. I am just adding samples in the form of .EML file.

Hi,


Thank you for sharing the sample file.

We have opened it in MS Outlook on our Windows machine but there is no animated image in it. Please have a look at the attached image Original files.png and attached output file which shows that the output in PST is the same as the original file. This shows that the generated PST file has the the EML in the same format as the original. Please try it with the latest version of the API and let us know your feedback.

Sample Code:

<pre style=“font-family: “Courier New”; font-size: 9pt;”>PersonalStorage pst = PersonalStorage.create(“815874\test.pst”, FileFormatVersion.Unicode);

FolderInfo fi = pst.getRootFolder().addSubFolder(“Test”);


//for (string file in Directory.GetFiles(“815874\”, “*.eml”))
{
MailMessage eml = MailMessage.load(“815874\animated image.eml”);

MapiMessage msg = MapiMessage.fromMailMessage(eml, MapiConversionOptions.getUnicodeFormat());

fi.addMessage(msg);

eml = MailMessage.load(“815874\Smili Facess.eml”);

msg = MapiMessage.fromMailMessage(eml, MapiConversionOptions.getUnicodeFormat());

fi.addMessage(msg);
}

pst.dispose();

Hi Ajinath,


We are able to observe the issue, but please note that this is not something related to the Aspose.Email API. Instead, Microsoft Outlook isn’t able to display the smiley face as Thunderbird. If we re-save the file as EML using Aspose.Email and open the file in Thunderbird again, we see that Aspose.Email API doesn’t do anything wrong to it and the smiley faces are displayed fine in Thunderbird as well. Thus, it seems that MS Outlook replaces the Smiley faces with “:)” itself and displays it this way. Please feel free to write to us if you have any further query in this regard.
