Outlook Message Parser is a continuation (or fork if that project independently continues) of msgparser.
Under the hood it uses the Apache POI - POIFS library to parse the message files which use the OLE 2 Compound Document format. Thus, it is merely a convenience library that covers the details of the .msg file. The implementation is based on the information provided at fileformat.info.
