<p>I'm starting a project which requires reading outlook msg files in c#.  I have the specs for compound documents but am having trouble reading them in c#.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

Outlook Interop
.  While I have never used the outlook interop, you
SHOULD
be able to open the email messages with it.
MailItem Interface
should be the interface that you need to access it.
Also, make sure that you release the
com references
after you are done with them
