The conversion runs in your browser with JavaScript. Your .msg file is read from disk and never uploaded to our servers.

Your converted file is ready in seconds — no email, no account, no waiting in a queue.

// Why this instead of Outlook
No install. No inbox. No waiting.
Most people land here holding one .msg attachment and no copy of Outlook. That's the whole product.
Runs in your browser
Files are parsed and converted locally — nothing is uploaded, so there's nothing to leak.
Attachments preserved
Original attachments carry over into EML output and are listed for one-click saving.
Batch conversion
Drop a folder of .msg files and convert all of them to the same format in one pass.
Works on any OS
No Outlook, no Windows required — this runs the same on Mac, Linux, or a phone browser.
// Frequently asked
Questions people ask before converting
MSG is the file format Outlook uses to save a single email, contact, or calendar item. It stores the header (sender, recipient, subject, timestamp), the message body, and any attachments in one binary file — which is why it can typically only be opened natively in Outlook.
No. Conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript — the file is never transmitted to our servers, so we never see its contents.
Convert it to EML (opens in almost any email client or browser) or PDF (opens anywhere) using the tool above — no installation needed. You can also read it directly in the MSG Viewer.
Free conversion supports files up to 25MB and unlimited batches. Larger archives may take longer since everything runs on your own device's processing power.
MSG is a proprietary binary container, so writing it in a browser is not reliable. The EML to MSG page explains the safe desktop route for re-importing a message into Outlook.
