Format Details
EML
EML is a standardized file format for storing individual email messages, defined by the MIME standard (RFC 5322) and used by most email clients. It preserves the complete email including headers, plain-text body, HTML body, and file attachments exactly as they were transmitted. EML files are supported by Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and are commonly used for email archiving, migration, and forensic analysis.
JSON
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, human-readable data interchange format derived from JavaScript object literal syntax. It natively supports objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, and null, allowing it to represent arbitrarily nested data structures. JSON has become the universal standard for REST API responses, configuration files, and data interchange on the web, with native parsing support in virtually every programming language.
