Hi,

I am trying to read the contents of an outlook msg-file on disk. I do this 
by using the StgOpenStorage to create an IStorage interface, and then using 
OpenStream/OpenStorage to read the properties. (As adviced by Gambit in 
atozedsoftware.indy.general)
This seems to work properly, and I can retrieve the Sender/Subject/Body/... 
of the email. However I am not able to find the date when the email is 
sent. None of the Streams in the storage have the PT_SYSTIME datatype, and 
none have a "Time-tag" as defined in mapitags.h (for example 
PR_CLIENT_SUBMIT_TIME).
But when I open the msg-file in Outlook, the date the email is sent is 
shown. How can I retrieve this date?

regards,

Koen
