Import - Attachments Issue

[Ben G.]

First, thank you very much for developing Piler.

I am trying to evaluate Piler's mail import capabiltiies. Right now I'm working with the Enron test data provided by nuix.com in PSTs, which I'm converting with readpst -e into EML and then importing with pilerimport -d .

The emails are coming in fine, and some attachments are coming in fine, but I'm seeing some Word and Excel documents that are importing incorrectly as files less than 1 kilobyte in size. When I check the original .eml file that readpst generated using a mail client, the attachment is fine.

During the import on the terminal, I see many warnings about files not being OLE or OLE2, is this related? Please help. I've tried this with piler 0.1.24 and also the beta build shown below. Using CentOS 6.5 64-bit with no external mail server attached.

Can you give me the location of this enron pst file? Also can you attach the problematic email with the attachment?

[Ben G.]

I am very sorry -- I was mistaken -- I went back and found out that the .eml files generated by readpst are at fault, so something is going wrong when readpst reads the PST and converts to eml. It's not a piler issue afterall.

Please close this issue.

OK, issue is resolved.
