About EML
An EML file is one email saved as plain text: headers such as From and Subject, then the body, with attachments encoded as text. The layout is the Internet message format that mail servers use. Most mail programs can open it and drag-and-drop one out of a message list.
EML is the raw message, with encoded attachments and HTML bodies that need a mail program to display. EML is an open format that nearly every mail client reads.
