[all variants] Opening .msg files

I bunch of emails saved in this format, but I for the life of me cannot figure out how to open them. I looked around on the internet and read about MSG and the ubuntu forums didn't turn up anything.

Help?

[all variants] Opening .msg files

You could try mc it is a Norton Commander clone you have to run it in a terminal. I've found that it will open almost anything. You can search for it in synaptic. Once installed open a terminal and type mc.

Didn't open in text editor, would prefer not to install Outlook.

It's probably just a text file. Try opening them with your favorite text editor.

Or in a terminal window you can have a look at it like so:
Code:
cat <filename>.msg

not of my finding, but this looks it has some mileage

Does rather rely on having Outlook though....

Where did you get the emails from? In the past I have seen attached messages from outlook appear with a .msg file extension.
