      I suggest to creating a Domino setting or rule to automatically convert .msg attachments to PDF or EML files when the mail arrives on the server. The Java code for such a conversion is openly available on GitHub or as an open Java library.

      A .MSG file is completely useless outside of Microsoft world.

    Open .msg-files in HCL Notes

    Our company is located in a Microsoft country - and therefore we often receive attached emails from Outlook (.msg files) So far, they can only be read / converted via 3rd party programs. It could be nice if it became an option to read them in HCL ...

    Need the option to import an .msg outlook email without having to go to a third party option or Outlook itself.

    Tons of people use some sort of Microsoft email platform. Why would Notes not offer the option open .msg files? Thanks
