Sharepoint Incoming Email with .msg attachment,Attachment missing
Hi
I have a document library confogured to allow incoming emails.My environment is Moss 2007 sp1. When i send an email with an attachment of type doc or pdf or zip. The attachments are there in the document library.
If i send an email with a .msg file (outlook 2003) as attachment, the attachment goes missing. I Stopped the Timer service and sent an email and the email was available in the drop folder.If i open the email from the drop folder i can see that my attachment
is there.Now if i start the Sharepoint timer service the email body is available in the document library but the attachment is Missing. This issue is happening only with attachments of type .msg.
Please could you help with this issue.

Is "msg" in your Blocked File Types list? (It's not there by default...)

Hi
There is no fix for this. I have raised this issue with Microsoft and they said that it is a product Limitation.
What you can do is write a custom email event handler to strip the attachment from the orgional email.The .msg would come as an eml file.
The Limitation with this approach is that if the attached .msg has an another attachment ,it is difficult to get the attachment.Please let me know if you need any more help.
I can provide sample code for the same.
