Default How can I programmatically display an email message saved in a msg file?

I'm creating an Email archival system which needs to be able to
programmatically display email messages saved in .msg files.

I know I can just double click on the file in Windows Explorer to display
it, but surely there must be a way of reading the file programmatically into
a mailitem so it can be displayed by Outlook?

Many thanks for your help.

You would need to use Redemption or Outlook 2007 for that.
