Importing .MSG files

This is somewhat of a programming question, but I'm open to suggestions for
utilities as well.

I have around 40,000 email messages saved in .MSG files on a network. Each
message is in a folder / subflder tree like this:

Average, User/Folder Name/my message.msg

The problem I now have is to try and get all these messages back into their
respective Outlook folders for each user so that our new archiving solution
can archive them.

I would like to make a programmed solution for this, but if there is a
utility around that might do it, I'm open to suggestions. There should be no
user process required here.

Basically, i need to:
read the .MSG file and create a new mail item, then use the MAPI API to get
the users mailbox then create the folder under Inbox if needed, then insert
the message.

I'm fairly sure I can do everything in C# apart from the first bit - read
the MSG file and make it into a mail item in code.

Any ideas?
