Overview

What Is EML to JSON Conversion?

EML is the standard format for a single email message (RFC 822 and MIME). One .eml file holds one message — headers and body (plain or HTML). EML to JSON conversion turns your EML messages into structured JSON: an array of objects with fields like from, to, subject, date, and body.

This tool reads each EML file on your device, parses headers and body, and outputs valid JSON. No data is uploaded. You download a single .json file. Batch mode combines many EML files into one JSON array for use in apps, APIs, or scripts.

Converting EML to JSON is useful for feeding email data into applications, building search indexes, automation, or data analysis. The process is free, private, and works with EML from any source.

All processing is private; nothing is sent to our servers. Your email files stay on your device until you download the JSON.
