in reply to Reading an Outlook PST FIle

Just looking on the 'net I found this link which basically says that the .pst file format is protected, and accessing the files through OLE might be the way to go (with a running instance of Microsoft Outlook).

A perl FAQ (How do I create a new folder in Outlook?) may be a stepping stone..

    This question just came up again on the Chatterbox, and looking through CPAN I found a module (by Barbie): Mail::Outlook, which apparently is built on top of Win32::OLE. So you no longer have to start from zero.
