What Is OLM to TXT Conversion?

OLM to TXT conversion takes an Outlook for Mac OLM file (ZIP-based archive with XML email data) and exports each email as a .txt file. TXT is plain text — no HTML or formatting, just the readable content. Any text editor or script can open .txt files. Converting to TXT is ideal for archiving, searching, or processing email content as plain text.

Our free OLM to TXT converter processes on your device. You drop one or more .olm files, and the tool extracts all emails, then generates one .txt per message. All processing happens on your device; nothing is uploaded to any server.

Use cases include archiving Outlook for Mac mail as plain text, running grep or search on content, feeding text into scripts or NLP, and keeping a simple, universal copy of email body text. No Microsoft Outlook for Mac installation is required — the tool works on Windows, Mac, and Linux on any modern platform.
