What is EMLX File Format?
EMLX is a file format used by Apple Mail. It is a proprietary file format used to store individual email messages on macOS and Mac OS X operating systems. Each EMLX file represents a single email message and typically contains the email’s content, attachments, headers, and metadata. They are usually stored in a nested directory structure on the user’s computer, with each email message saved as a separate file. The EMLX format allows Apple Mail to efficiently manage and store email messages while providing easy access to individual messages for users.
What is MBOX File Format?
The MBOX file format is a standard format for storing and organizing email messages in a concatenated format within a single file. It typically consists of a collection of email messages, each separated by a “From” header, making it a common choice for archiving and transferring emails across different email clients and systems.
