      Key Features Of The Outlook MSG Converter

      Convert Your MSG Files Without Installing Outlook

      Outlook is considered to be the widely used tool that is required to open or export MSG files. But with this converter tool, users can do this without needing Outlook to be installed on the system. This feature saves time when changing to a new computer.

      Export to the Desired Format

      Each file format serves different purposes; for example, PDF format is universally accepted, and PST format is best for email clients. Users can convert their MSG files to desired formats such as EML, EMLX, DOCX, etc.

      Move Straight Into Another Email Client

      Alongside file conversion, this tool allows you to log in to your designated email service providers. In this way, users can set up their destination mailbox and import their MSG data directly into their email client. It supports email clients such as Gmail, GoDaddy Mail, Yahoo Mail, and others.

      File Selection & Folder Hierarchy

      In this software, when users browse through files, it filters out non-MSG files, making file selection fast. Email folders are preserved the same as before after a complete migration or conversion. This eliminates users' difficulties in maintaining that folder structure again from scratch.

      Mailbox Preview

      View the total message count, sender, subject, received date, email body, and attachments of the selected MSG file before converting.

      Split PST files

      Divide the resulting PST file by size in MB or GB while converting MSG files to PST. This helps users split their PST files by size to make email backup easier and prevent file corruption.

      Save Extracted Data

      Save specific email content such as URL, attachment, email, and phone. This extracted data can be saved in 2 formats, which include CSV and XLSX. With this, you can access specific email content as per requirements.

      Save Attachments to Separate Folder

      Users can save their email messages with and without their attachments. This makes the conversion process faster and time-saving. If users don't want to keep their attachments during conversion, they can eliminate them at the time of conversion.

      Multi-platform Support

      Different versions of the application work on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Having such a wide variety makes it easier for users to access this tool on any available platform.

      Same Source and Destination

      Users can store the output in the same place as the source file. The tool gives the option to select a custom destination folder so users can keep both source and destination files in one folder.

      Duplicate Removal

      Remove repeated emails from the MSG files before conversion. The tool helps users to remove duplicates from email messages on the basis of To, From, Body, CC, and Subject. To ensure the conversion goes smoothly and avoids any duplicates.

      Skip Previously Imported Files

      This option is useful to skip those files that were imported in a previous migration process. Whenever users migrate their files in bulk, their new email messages get skipped, so they redo the whole migration process. In such cases, the old messages that were already migrated can become duplicates. So, to avoid this, it skips old messages.

      User-Friendly Interface & Demo Version

      UUsers who want a simple GUI can prefer this software, as it has a clean interface. Every option and filter is well labeled, making file selection, previewing of files, and applying filters easier.
