Hello Experts,

I would like to export all mails from a given PST file. For this I use the following code:

PstReader objPstReader = null;
PstFolderCollection objPstFolders = null;
MailMessage objMail = null;
string strPstName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(strPstFile).ToUpper();
string strFilename = String.Empty;
DateTime dtiReceived = DateTime.Now;
int i = 0;

objPstReader = new PstReader(strPstFile);
objPstFolders = objPstReader.GetPstRootFolders(true);

foreach (PstFolder objPstFolder in objPstFolders)
{
   foreach (PstItem objItem in objPstFolder.Items)
   {
       if ((objItem != null) && (objItem.PstType == PstItemType.Message))
       {
           objMail = ((PstMessage)objItem).GetAsMailMessage(true);
           if (objMail != null)
           {
                dtiReceived = objMail.DateReceived;   // <<--- DateTime.MinValue ist returned
                strFilename = Path.Combine(strExportDir, String.Format("{0}-{1:yyyyMMddHHmmss}{2:00000000}.EML", dtiReceived, strPstName, ++i));

                objMail.SaveMessage(strFilename);
           }
       }
   }

The export in EML-Files is actually correct, but the received-date of the e-mail is not read correctly. It is always DateTime.MinValue (01/01/01).

Can you help me?

Use HelpDesk to submit the .PST file in question.

With the new version of MailBee.NET.dll 'DateReceived' is now displayed correctly.
Thank you very much.

Unfortunately, I realized that the property 'DateSent' show also always '01.01.0001'. Can you repair this property also?

The thing is, regular EML message doesn't hold DateSent info, we've added it specifically for MSG-EML conversion.

You can try using the following code:

Code:

foreach (PstItem item in fItem.Items)

  {

   if (item != null && item.PstType == PstItemType.Message)

   {

    MailMessage mimeVersion = ((PstMessage)item).GetAsMailMessage();

     Console.WriteLine(mimeVersion.Header s["X-Msg-ClientSubmitTime"]);

There's no guarantee it will work as expected though. Alternately, you can try using Date property instead.
