Files with the .EML extension are individual email message formatted to be compliant with the RFC-822 specification. EML files contain the email messages, file attachments, html code, and even internet header information. As an open standard, EML files are accessible to virtually every email client. Because its an open non-proprietary standard (unlike the .MSG format which is Microsoft's proprietary equivalent) EML files are often used to archive email messages.
