[Libpst-devel] Working on Outlook 2003 64-bit support

Greetings,

I've been chipping away at adding 64-bit outlook support to libpst-0.5.1
for a few days now.  Here's where I am at now (messy as it is):

http://lilith.tec-man.com/dump/libpst64-060918.tar.gz

I'd post a patch, but I've added a few big files temporarily (perhaps?)
for easy (for me) UTF-16 to UTF-8.

One big problem that I am having is that I don't have access to a
windows machine with a copy of 2003 on it.  Also, the only .pst file I
have is Chinese.  It makes it difficult to tell if the output is valid
UTF-8 or the program crashing.

I would appreciate it if someone could provide me with a sample Outlook
2003 .pst file.  It would be nice if there were some emails formatted
like "From: fromfield at fromfield.dom, Subject: Subject Field", etc.

Also, any comments or suggestions on what I've done so far would be
good.  I'm not totally familiar with the layout of the program or .pst
files just yet.  I'm sure I'm doing some things in the wrong places.

Thanks,

Sean
