How to Convert EMLX Files to VCF Format
Converting EMLX files to VCF format allows users to store their email contacts in a single file that can be easily imported into various email clients, address book applications, and devices. VCF (vCard) format is widely supported and recognized as a universal format for storing contact information, making it convenient for users to transfer and access their contacts across different platforms and devices.
Aspose.Email for Java is a powerful API that provides comprehensive functionality for working with email messages, contacts, calendars, and tasks in Java applications. To convert EMLX message files to VCF format, the library offers a MailMessage class to create an object representing an e-mail message. It allows to access message properties, such as subject, body, sender and recipients addreses, etc. With its methods, you can create, load and parse, modify, save emails, or perform other manipulations with them. The AlternateView class represents the format to view specific message content like contact information, etc. For more information about the API high code features, please visit our reference resources .
Steps to Convert EMLX to VCF via Java
Java programmers can easily convert EMLX file to VCF in just a few lines of code.
- Load the EMLX file “message.emlx” using the MailMessage.load() method.
- Find the alternate view with MediaType “text/vcard” (VCF) using the getAlternateViewContent() method of the MailMessage object.
- If a VCF view is found (i.e., vcfView is not null), create a FileWriter object to write the content to a file “contact.vcf”.
- Write the content of the VCF view to the “contact.vcf” file using the FileWriter.write() method.
System Requirements
Before running the Java conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows or a compatible OS with Java Runtime Environment for JSP/JSF Application and Desktop Applications.
- Get latest version of Aspose.Email for Java directly from Maven .
Convert EMLX to VCF - Java
// Load the EMLX file
MailMessage eml = MailMessage.load("message.emlx");
// Find the alternate view with MediaType "text/vcard" (VCF)
AlternateView vcfView = eml.getAlternateViewContent("text/vcard");
// If a VCF view is found, save it to a file
if (vcfView != null) {
FileWriter writer = new FileWriter("contact.vcf")
writer.write(new String(vcfView.getContent()));
}
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 VCF File Format?
VCF (vCard) is a file format used for storing contact information, such as names, email addresses, phone numbers, and other details. VCF files are commonly used to exchange contact information between different devices, email clients, and contact management applications. Each VCF file typically represents a single contact or a group of contacts and may include various fields to store different types of contact data. VCF files can be easily imported and exported from different platforms, making it a convenient and standardized format for sharing and managing contact information. Additionally, VCF files can be easily attached to emails or shared through various means, allowing users to transfer contact details seamlessly between devices and applications.
