What is a MSG file?
MSG is the file format Microsoft Outlook uses to save a single email, contact, or calendar item. It stores the header (sender, recipient, subject, timestamp), the message body, and any original attachments in one file — which is why it can typically only be opened natively in Outlook.

What is a DOC file?
DOC is Microsoft Word's document format, and the format most offices still expect when a text needs to be edited, reviewed or signed off. Unlike PDF, a DOC file stays fully editable: you can redact a name, add comments in the margin, or merge the email into a longer memo. Our converter writes a Word-compatible document containing the header block and the formatted message body, so Word, LibreOffice Writer, Pages and Google Docs all open it without a conversion prompt.
// Frequently asked
Questions people ask before converting
Yes. The output is a Word-compatible .doc file — Word, LibreOffice Writer, Pages and Google Docs all open and edit it normally.
Bold, italics, lists, links and tables from the HTML body carry over. Very complex email layouts may reflow, since Word paginates differently from a mail client.
PDF for anything that must not change — records, evidence, sharing. DOC when the text still needs to be edited or redacted.
Images referenced by remote URLs are kept as links; embedded inline images are listed with the attachments so you can insert them where you need them.
