NAME
outlook.pst - format of MS Outlook .pst file
SYNOPSIS
outlook.pst
OVERVIEW
Low level or primitive items in a .pst file are identified by an I_ID value. Higher level
or composite items in a .pst file are identified by a D_ID value. There are two separate
b-trees indexed by these I_ID and D_ID values. Starting with Outlook 2003, the file format
changed from one with 32 bit pointers, to one with 64 bit pointers. We describe both
formats here.
32 BIT FILE HEADER
The 32 bit file header is located at offset 0 in the .pst file.

We only support index types 0x0e, 0x0f, 0x15, and 0x17, and encryption types 0x00, 0x01
and 0x02. Index type 0x0e is the older 32 bit Outlook format. Index type 0x0f seems to be
rare, and so far the data seems to be identical to that in type 0x0e files. Index type
0x17 is the newer 64 bit Outlook format. Index type 0x15 seems to be rare, and according
to the libpff project should have the same format as type 0x17 files. It was found in a
64-bit pst file created by Visual Recovery. It may be that index types less than 0x10 are
32 bit, and index types greater than or equal to 0x10 are 64 bit, and the low order four
bits of the index type is some subtype or minor version number.
Encryption type 0x00 is no encryption, type 0x01 is "compressible" encryption which is a
simple substitution cipher, and type 0x02 is "strong" encryption, which is a simple three
rotor Enigma cipher from WWII.
offsetIndex1 is the file offset of the root of the index1 b-tree, which contains (I_ID,
offset, size, unknown) tuples for each item in the file. backPointer1 is the value that
should appear in the parent pointer of that root node.
offsetIndex2 is the file offset of the root of the index2 b-tree, which contains (D_ID,
DESC-I_ID, TREE-I_ID, PARENT-D_ID) tuples for each item in the file. backPointer2 is the
value that should appear in the parent pointer of that root node.
64 BIT FILE HEADER
The 64 bit file header is located at offset 0 in the .pst file.

The itemCount specifies the number of 12 byte records that are active. The nodeLevel is
non-zero for this style of nodes. The leaf nodes have a different format. The backPointer
must match the backPointer from the triple that pointed to this node.
Each item in this node is a triple of (I_ID, backPointer, offset) where the offset points
to the next deeper node in the tree, the backPointer value must match the backPointer in
that deeper node, and I_ID is the lowest I_ID value in the subtree.
64 BIT INDEX 1 NODE
The 64 bit index1 b-tree nodes are 512 byte blocks with the following format.

must match the backPointer from the triple that pointed to this node.
Each item in this node is a triple of (I_ID, backPointer, offset) where the offset points
to the next deeper node in the tree, the backPointer value must match the backPointer in
that deeper node, and I_ID is the lowest I_ID value in the subtree.

01f8 backPointer [8 bytes] 0x000083 in this case
The itemCount specifies the number of 24 byte records that are active. The nodeLevel is
non-zero for this style of nodes. The leaf nodes have a different format. The backPointer
must match the backPointer from the triple that pointed to this node.
Each item in this node is a triple of (D_ID, backPointer, offset) where the offset points
to the next deeper node in the tree, the backPointer value must match the backPointer in
that deeper node, and D_ID is the lowest D_ID value in the subtree.
32 BIT INDEX 2 LEAF NODE

The itemCount specifies the number of 16 byte records that are active. The nodeLevel is
zero for these leaf nodes. The backPointer must match the backPointer from the triple that
pointed to this node.
Each item in this node is a tuple of (D_ID, DESC-I_ID, TREE-I_ID, PARENT-D_ID) The
DESC-I_ID points to the main data for this item (Associated Descriptor Items 0x7cec,
0xbcec, or 0x0101) via the index1 tree. The TREE-I_ID is zero or points to an Associated
Tree Item 0x0002 via the index1 tree. The PARENT-D_ID points to the parent of this item in
this index2 tree.

The itemCount specifies the number of 32 byte records that are active. The nodeLevel is
zero for these leaf nodes. The backPointer must match the backPointer from the triple that
pointed to this node.
Each item in this node is a tuple of (D_ID, DESC-I_ID, TREE-I_ID, PARENT-D_ID) The
DESC-I_ID points to the main data for this item (Associated Descriptor Items 0x7cec,
0xbcec, or 0x0101) via the index1 tree. The TREE-I_ID is zero or points to an Associated
Tree Item 0x0002 via the index1 tree. The PARENT-D_ID points to the parent of this item in
this index2 tree.
32 BIT ASSOCIATED TREE ITEM 0X0002
A D_ID value may point to an entry in the index2 tree with a non-zero TREE-I_ID which
points to this descriptor block via the index1 tree. It maps local ID2 values (referenced
in the main data for the original D_ID item) to I_ID values. This descriptor block
contains triples of (ID2, I_ID, CHILD-I_ID) where the local ID2 data can be found via
I_ID, and CHILD-I_ID is either zero or it points to another Associated Tree Item via the
index1 tree.
In the above 32 bit leaf node, we have a tuple of (0x61, 0x02a82c, 0x02a836, 0) 0x02a836
is the I_ID of the associated tree, and we can lookup that I_ID value in the index1 b-tree
to find the (offset,size) of the data in the .pst file.

ASSOCIATED DESCRIPTOR ITEM 0XBCEC
Contains information about the item, which may be email, contact, or other outlook types.
In the above leaf node, we have a tuple of (0x21, 0x00e638, 0, 0) 0x00e638 is the I_ID of
the associated descriptor, and we can lookup that I_ID value in the index1 b-tree to find
the (offset,size) of the data in the .pst file. This descriptor is eventually decoded to a
list of MAPI elements.

0000 indexOffset [2 bytes] 0x013c in this case
0002 signature [2 bytes] 0xbcec constant
0004 b5offset [4 bytes] 0x0020 index reference
Note the signature of 0xbcec. There are other descriptor block formats with other
signatures. Note the indexOffset of 0x013c - starting at that position in the descriptor
block, we have an array of two byte integers. The first integer (0x000b) is a (count-1) of
the number of overlapping pairs following the count. The first pair is (0, 0xc), the next
pair is (0xc, 0x14) and the last (12th) pair is (0x123, 0x13b). These pairs are
(start,end+1) offsets of items in this block. So we have count+2 integers following the
count value.
Note the b5offset of 0x0020, which is a type that I will call an index reference. Such
index references have at least two different forms, and may point to data either in this
block, or in some other block. External pointer references have the low order 4 bits all
set, and are ID2 values that can be used to fetch data. This value of 0x0020 is an
internal pointer reference, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become 0x0002,
which is then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip the
count), so it points to the (0xc, 0x14) pair.
So far we have only described internal index references where the high order 16 bits are
zero. That suffices for single descriptor blocks. But in the case of the type 0x0101
descriptor block, we have an array of subblocks. In this case, the high order 16 bits of
an internal index reference are used to select the subblock. Each subblock starts with a
16 bit indexOffset which points to the count and array of 16 bit integer pairs which are
offsets in the current subblock.
Finally, we have the offset and size of the "b5" block located at offset 0xc with a size
of 8 bytes in this descriptor block. The "b5" block has the following format:
0000 signature [2 bytes] 0x02b5 constant
0002 datasize [2 bytes] 0x0006 constant +2 for 8 byte entries
0004 descoffset [4 bytes] 0x0040 index reference
Note the descoffset of 0x0040, which again is an index reference. In this case, it is an
internal pointer reference, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become 0x0004,
which is then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip the
count), so it points to the (0x14, 0x7c) pair. The datasize (6) plus the b5 code (02)
gives the size of the entries, in this case 8 bytes. We now have the offset 0x14 of the
descriptor array, composed of 8 byte entries that describe MAPI elements. Each descriptor
entry has the following format:
0000 itemType [2 bytes]
0002 referenceType [2 bytes]
0004 value [4 bytes]
For some reference types (2, 3, 0xb) the value is used directly. Otherwise, the value is
an index reference, which is either an ID2 value, or an offset, to be right shifted by 4
bits and used to fetch a pair from the index table to find the offset and size of the item
in this descriptor block.
The following reference types are known, but not all of these are implemented in the code
yet.
0x0002 - Signed 16bit value
0x0003 - Signed 32bit value
0x0004 - 4-byte floating point
0x0005 - Floating point double
0x0006 - Signed 64-bit int
0x0007 - Application Time
0x000A - 32-bit error value
0x000B - Boolean (non-zero = true)
0x000D - Embedded Object
0x0014 - 8-byte signed integer (64-bit)
0x001E - Null terminated String
0x001F - Unicode string
0x0040 - Systime - Filetime structure
0x0048 - OLE Guid
0x0102 - Binary data
0x1003 - Array of 32bit values

ASSOCIATED DESCRIPTOR ITEM 0X7CEC
This style of descriptor block is similar to the 0xbcec format. This descriptor is also
eventually decoded to a list of MAPI elements.

0000 indexOffset [2 bytes] 0x017a in this case
0002 signature [2 bytes] 0x7cec constant
0004 7coffset [4 bytes] 0x0040 index reference
Note the signature of 0x7cec. There are other descriptor block formats with other
signatures. Note the indexOffset of 0x017a - starting at that position in the descriptor
block, we have an array of two byte integers. The first integer (0x0006) is a (count-1) of
the number of overlapping pairs following the count. The first pair is (0, 0xc), the next
pair is (0xc, 0x14) and the last (7th) pair is (0x160, 0x179). These pairs are
(start,end+1) offsets of items in this block. So we have count+2 integers following the
count value.
Note the 7coffset of 0x0040, which is an index reference. In this case, it is an internal
reference pointer, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become 0x0004, which is
then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip the count), so
it points to the (0x14, 0xea) pair. We have the offset and size of the "7c" block located
at offset 0x14 with a size of 214 bytes in this case. The "7c" block starts with a header
with the following format:
0000 signature [1 bytes] 0x7c constant
0001 itemCount [1 bytes] 0x18 in this case
0002 unknown [2 bytes] 0x0060 in this case
0004 unknown [2 bytes] 0x0060 in this case
0006 unknown [2 bytes] 0x0062 in this case
0008 recordSize [2 bytes] 0x0065 in this case
000a b5Offset [4 bytes] 0x0020 index reference
000e index2Offset [4 bytes] 0x0080 index reference
0012 unknown [2 bytes] 0x0000 in this case
0014 unknown [2 bytes] 0x0000 in this case
Note the b5Offset of 0x0020, which is an index reference. In this case, it is an internal
reference pointer, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become 0x0002, which is
then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip the count), so
it points to the (0xc, 0x14) pair. Finally, we have the offset and size of the "b5" block
located at offset 0xc with a size of 8 bytes in this descriptor block. The "b5" block has
the following format:
0000 signature [2 bytes] 0x04b5 constant
0002 datasize [2 bytes] 0x0002 +4 for 6 byte entries in this case
0004 descoffset [4 bytes] 0x0060 index reference
Note the descoffset of 0x0060, which again is an index reference. In this case, it is an
internal pointer reference, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become 0x0006,
which is then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip the
count), so it points to the (0xea, 0xf0) pair. The datasize (2) plus the b5 code (04)
gives the size of the entries, in this case 6 bytes. We now have the offset 0xea of an
unused block of data in an unknown format, composed of 6 byte entries. That gives us (0xf0
- 0xea)/6 = 1, so we have a recordCount of one.
We have seen cases where the descoffset in the b5 block is zero, and the index2Offset in
the 7c block is zero. This has been seen for objects that seem to be attachments on
messages that have been read. Before the message was read, it did not have any
attachments.
Note the index2Offset above of 0x0080, which again is an index reference. In this case, it
is an internal pointer reference, which needs to be right shifted by 4 bits to become
0x0008, which is then a byte offset to be added to the above indexOffset plus two (to skip
the count), so it points to the (0xf0, 0x155) pair. This is an array of tables of four
byte integers. We will call these the IND2 tables. The size of each of these tables is
specified by the recordSize field of the "7c" header. The number of these tables is the
above recordCount value derived from the "b5" block.
Now the remaining data in the "7c" block after the header starts at offset 0x2a. There
should be itemCount 8 byte items here, with the following format:
0000 referenceType [2 bytes]
0002 itemType [2 bytes]
0004 ind2Offset [2 bytes]
0006 size [1 byte]
0007 unknown [1 byte]
The ind2Offset is a byte offset into the current IND2 table of some value. If that is a
four byte integer value, then once we fetch that, we have the same triple (item type,
reference type, value) as we find in the 0xbcec style descriptor blocks. If not, then this
value is used directly. These 8 byte descriptors are processed recordCount times, each
time using the next IND2 table. The item and reference types are as described above for
the 0xbcec format descriptor block.
32 BIT ASSOCIATED DESCRIPTOR ITEM 0X0101
This descriptor block contains a list of I_ID values. It is used when an I_ID (that would
normally point to a type 0x7cec or 0xbcec descriptor block) contains more data than can
fit in any single descriptor of those types. In this case, it points to a type 0x0101
block, which contains a list of I_ID values that themselves point to the actual descriptor
blocks. The total length value in the 0x0101 header is the sum of the lengths of the
blocks pointed to by the list of I_ID values. The result is an array of subblocks, that
may contain index references where the high order 16 bits specify which descriptor
subblock to use. Only the first descriptor subblock contains the signature (0xbcec or
0x7cec).
