Hi @Tejaskumar_Darji,

There are a couple ways you could do this. There are various freeware .MSG file viewers available online. You could always download one of those and then automate it with Application Modeller. Alternatively, there are some libraries available that could be used from a Code stage to open and extract the contents of a .MSG file too. Once such example is:
