Complete Internet Headers not written after around 200 emails

[AniketBhadane]

In folder.export\Root - Mailbox\IPM_SUBTREE\Inbox\, on opening messages after around 200, I can see that partial headers are present in Internet Headers text file. Why?

I'm running the program as: pffexport.exe -f all -m all -t folder file.ost

[joachimmetz]

what version of libpff / pffexport? what compiler was used to build it?

[AniketBhadane]

The downloaded folder has name libpff_150106, which I got from a link in a stackoverflow answer. This was already built by the author of the answer, using cygwin.

Also, pffexport.exe -h shows following: pffexport 20150106

Should I download libpff-experimental-20161119 ?

[joachimmetz]

20150106 is an old experimental version of libpff, I op to try the last alpha https://github.com/libyal/legacy/tree/master/libpff or the latest experimental https://github.com/libyal/libpff/releases

[AniketBhadane]

I compiled the experimental release on Ubuntu 16.04.

I used following commands: sudo ./configure sudo make sudo make install

But how do I run the program now? Where is the executable stored?

I'm asking a lot, but please can you provide a windows executable? You can upload it on https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Bpbuio97JSnQ0I_Rg8A2yj3oMkHhkS6o?usp=sharing

[joachimmetz]

sudo make install will install by default in /usr/local/bin/

[joachimmetz]

also there is no need to run ./configure and make with sudo

[AniketBhadane]

It gives error: pffexport: error while loading shared libraries: libpff.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[joachimmetz]

Make sure /use/local/lib is in your library cache configuration (ld.conf) and your library cache is up to date (ldconfig)

[AniketBhadane]

I also tried on Windows using msys-mingw. After doing "make" in msys-mingw, please can you tell where is the executable created?

[AniketBhadane]

I was able to compile and run the program. I still got the same problem. This was with OST from Outlook 2010. Then I used another OST from Outlook 2016. And complete headers for all emails are now written.

[joachimmetz]

And you are sure it is not an issue with the file? Any chance of you being able to share the file or format debug information?

It might be a problem with OST file. Also, can the tool convert the OST files from different versions of Outlook equally?

[joachimmetz]

libpff just reads the MAPI database inside the OST files. You can dump the MAPI values with pffexport or have a look with https://github.com/stephenegriffin/mfcmapi
