Read Outlook PST and Get Folders and Subfolders Information

Aspose.Email - Read Outlook PST and Get Folders and Subfolders Information

Aspose.Email for Java lets you read Microsoft Outlook PST files. You can load a PST file from disk or stream into an instance of the PersonalStorage class and get the information about its contents, for example folders, subfolders and messages.

After loading the PST file into the PersonalStorage class, you can get the information about the file display name, root folder, subfolders and messages count.

Java

 // Load the Outlook PST file

PersonalStorage pst = PersonalStorage.fromFile(dataDir + "personalStorage.pst");

// Get the Display Name of the PST file

System.out.println("Display Name: " + pst.getDisplayName());

// Get the folders information

FolderInfoCollection folderInfoCollection = pst.getRootFolder().getSubFolders();

// Browse through each folder to display folder name and number of messages

for (int i = 0; i < folderInfoCollection.size(); i++)

{

    FolderInfo folderInfo = (FolderInfo) folderInfoCollection.get_Item(i);

    System.out.println("Folder: " + folderInfo.getDisplayName());

    System.out.println("Total items: " + folderInfo.getContentCount());

    System.out.println("Total unread items: " + folderInfo.getContentUnreadCount());

    System.out.println("-----------------------------------");

}
