![]() ![]() This file stores the email text, but it also stores the email metadata – things like who sent the email, who received it and when, etc. When you drag-and-drop an email from Outlook to a folder on your computer, it’s converted into an MSG file. Microsoft’s email client Outlook uses the MSG format (i.e., a file with a ‘.msg’ extension) to store single email messages. An MSG file is how Outlook stores single emails. If you’ve used Outlook but aren’t much of a techie, you probably aren’t quite sure what goes on behind the scenes. Microsoft Outlook stores your emails as MSGs and PSTs. For more advanced tasks like eDiscovery, choose specialized software that protects metadata and can open all MSG-types. Takeaway: For a quick check of an MSG file’s contents, use Microsoft Outlook or a reliable third-party application (e.g., GoldFynch’s MSG/PST viewer). In the interim, you can use GoldFynch to open and view MSG and MBOX files. We are working on a new viewer that also supports MSG and MBOX files. NOTE: MSG files are no longer supported in the current PST/OST viewer. ![]()
