| Left out | Attachments only linked to, and embedded OLE objects: the result says how many |
| Body | HTML when the message has it, else the HTML or text inside its RTF body |
| Templates | Outlook .oft files convert the same way |
How to convert MSG to EML

- Download. Press Download to save the EML.
Why EML
An Outlook .msg opens only in Outlook. As .eml it opens in Apple Mail, Thunderbird and Outlook itself.
