An EML file is a common file format produced by email client software for storing individual email messages. It stands for “Electronic Mail” and is typically associated with email clients like Microsoft Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, and other email applications. EML files contain the content of an email message, including the email text, sender and recipient information, subject, date, and any file attachments.
EML files are plain text files, making them relatively easy to view and manage. They can be opened and read using various email clients or dedicated email viewer software. EML files are sometimes used for email message archival or migration between email programs.
In addition to being readable and portable, EML files are a standard format for exporting and importing email messages, making them a valuable tool for email management and transfer. Because they are so common, they often end up as evidence in litigation. EML is also a good format for archiving and sharing emails. The ability to search EML files and convert them in bulk to PDF and other formats is useful feature in Pst Viewer Pro, a Windows software product by Encryptomatic LLC.
