Reading outlook PST file using JavaScript

I'm looking for a way to read a pst file and use JavaScript to parse it.

I need to read the contacts and the calendar meetings stored in the file.

Is it possible?

Thanks.

PST file format is documented at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff385210(v=office.12).aspx It is as binary as it gets.

You can use the Outlook Object Model to open a PST file in the current Outlook profile using Namespace.AddStore/AddStoreEx.

You can also use Redemption (I am its author - requires Outlook or the standalone version of MAPI to be installed) and its RDOSession.LogonPstStore or RDOSession.Stores.AddPstStore methods.
