Bug ID: 44580
           Summary: Outlook 2007 cannot read MSG files anymore
           Product: Wine
           Version: 3.2
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]

      Distribution: ---

I use wine to drive Outlook 2007 to produce automatically printed PDF files
from MSG files (created by Outlook 2007 under Windows) in a batch script under
linux.

For that I use cupspdf as default printer and call Outlook with the '/p' switch
and the respective file as the second argument.

I have implemented this script well before the 3.0 release. I think it is
running since more than one year. Initially I ran into the issue that Outlook
could not open an MSG file and spit out 'Cannot start Microsoft Office
Outlook'.

So currently I am working around that issue by firstly trying to open the MSG.
If above error is given, I convert the MSG file to an EML file via

http://search.cpan.org/dist/Email-Outlook-Message/

and then reconvert it back to MSG via:

Usually, Outlook 2007 can then start and open the file correctly. So there is
already something not in order in view of parsing MSG files created by Outlook
itself.

This was before the update to wine 3.2

Since wine 3.2, no MSG file can be opened. Outlook always drops above error
message regardless if the MSG had been converted or not.

For now I have reverted back to wine 3.1 and everything works as it should.
However, something had been introduced, what breaks Outlook 2007.
