Summary: Outlook missing HTML in all pst mail

Initial Comment:
Discovered via [ 797064 ] Problems moving messages

between pst and Exchange



I am confused how this *ever* worked for me, but I am

sure it did.  Particularly, MSKB Q268440 "INFO: MAPI Is

Not Suitable for HTML Messages" tells me it never

should have worked.



That KB tells us PR_BODY_HTML is useless everywhere. 

It is for me, but people with Exchange Server report it

*does* work in the server mailbox, but not in the .pst

mailbox (and moving the *same* message between stores

seems to magically transform this property - see

797064).  "Spam Clues" never shows HTML tokens.  I

instrumented the test suite, and got the following result:



Checked 4975 items, 0 non-filterable items found

of these items, 0 had no headers, 179 had no text body

and 4840 had no HTML



I wonder what the 130 that *do* have the HTML are? 

*sigh*  Either way, a google search looks like I need

to process the "compressed RTF" property (which means a

new win32all method, and a dumb RTF parser) *sigh**2*

FWIW, I'm not missing that many:



Checked 4223 items, 0 non-filterable items found

of these items, 0 had no headers, 11 had no text body and 75 

had no HTML



27 of these are on Exchange, the rest in a .pst.  This is with 

the latest win32all's and cvs.



The 11 with no text body are correct - these messages are 

all multi-part with no text part (they tend to be virus 

messages).



If I look at the ones without html in Outlook, Outlook thinks 

that they are plain text.  They (I looked at 6 or so) have a 

content-type of multipart, but the source doesn't seem (OL 

makes it hard to tell) to have a boundary, or an html part.
