What is an .EMAIL file?

The email file extension was associated with Microsoft Outlook Express, an e-mail and news client included in earlier releases of Microsoft Internet Explorer. Outlook Express was replaced by Windows Mail or Microsoft Mail Live but this email clients was discontinued too.

The .email files was used for saved email messages. The more common is the EML file extension.

This email file type entry was marked as obsolete and no longer supported file format.

This type of file is no longer actively used and is most likely obsolete. This is typically the case for system files in old operating systems, file types from long discontinued software, or previous versions of certain file types (like documents, projects etc.) that were replaced in higher versions of their original programs.

How to open:

You can try to use old Outlook Express or Windows Mail in some kind of virtual machine to open the *.email files. In current Windows edition there is no support for this .email file type.

How to convert:

As far as we know, this .email file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
