Emailchemy overview

Emailchemy reads email files from the proprietary formats of most popular email applications and converts them to standard formats that any application can use. Includes a toolbox of utilities for managing email, including an Address Harvester, Mailbox Splitter, an embedded IMAP mail server for importing converted mail into most modern email clients, and a tool for uploading email into Google Apps.

Emailchemy currently can read the email files and mailboxes from:

  • AOL for Windows
  • Apple Mail
  • Claris Emailer
  • CompuServe Classic for Mac (MacCIM)
  • CompuServe for Windows
  • Entourage
  • Eudora
  • Mozilla (and Thunderbird)
  • Mulberry
  • Musashi
  • Neoplanet
  • Netscape
  • Opera
  • Outlook for Mac
  • Outlook for Windows
  • Outlook Express 4 and 5 Mac
  • Outlook Express 4, 5 and 6 for Windows
  • Outlook Express 5 for UNIX/Solaris
  • Outspring
  • PowerTalk/AOCE for Mac
  • QuickMail Pro for Mac
  • QuickMail Pro for Windows
  • Windows Live Mail
  • Windows Mail
  • Yahoo! downloaded mail archives
  • any UNIX-style mailbox (BSD mbox format)

Emailchemy currently can rewrite any of the above formats into:

  • RFC-822 mailboxes (commonly known as "mbox" or "UNIX-style")
  • Folders of individual RFC-822 email files (.txt or .eml files)
  • Comma-separated value files (.csv)
  • Variations of the RFC-822 mailboxes that are directly usable by Thunderbird and Apple's Mac OS X Mail

This is a real useful app. I needed it to convert Mac Entourage emails. The app is a little buggy at times and confusing. I think their update policy is ridiculous. Customers should be able to update their app to fix bugs. The update policy is too expensive. Not really fair to their customers.

This is the Swiss Army knife for email on the Mac. It has been around for over 10 years and it has performed for me many times. The software developer is highly responsive to any questions and in exchanges I have had, he has quickly added improvements as necessary. This is an area where I have seen user/developer exchanges really work to the community's advantage. Email is something we all take for granted, but behind the scenes it is a real labyrinth to ensure compatibility between systems. This developer has HUGE experience in all this. Something you appreciate when, if you are not a professional forensic specialist, you only venture into this world from time to time. Five stars.

Its essentially a subscription vs. an app purchase. I bought it in late 2015 and it version 12.x didn't work with Outlook for Mac 2016.

So, I never used it until today and want to try it to export some email from a backup drive and import it into the latest Outlook for Mac. Guess what. I don't qualify for the current version which works, because I'm outside of the one year of my subscription.

They didn't release a version that worked with Outlook for Mac 2016 until well after the year after my Sept 2015 purchase. So, I never would have had a chance to use my purchase.

Poor customer service. They just offer update pricing discount. I can't say that it doesn't work today.

The installer doesn't work. It starts by saying that it is preparing the 4jWizard and then quits. No Wizard is launched.

Very useful app but like someone already said below, it is something you only use once in a blue moon. I've purchased licenses for versions 9-11 but the lack of a cheaper upgrade path as well as the fact that it IS a one trick pony makes it very unlikely that I'll buy a license for version 12

Does what it says and does it well. One minor quibble is that it costs to update annually ... which make sit more expensive than it probably should be. That said, you don't need to convert your e-mail annually (once in a blue moon is more like it) so you'r eprobably only looking at paying for an update every few years or so

I purchased this application to convert a windows outlook .pst file into mac mail format. I received my license key within 30 seconds of paying for it and downloaded the full version. After downloading, it took less than one minute for this software to process and convert 500+ e-mails (attachments included) ... done! I definitely recommend this application! ;-)

this is the conversion tool i have ever seen as simple, easly and fast. nothing can be compared to this one. my 5.51 GB outlook pst file has been converted into mail.app format in 20 mins only where other tools did it in hours ! this deserves more than 5 stars.

The software is great and the owner responsive to questions. There's no help file that I can see, and some things need to be explained. But this is a workhorse of a product. Worth every penny once you figure out how to use it effectively. There is nothing else like it on the market. The guy who complained bitterly about being sent a demo link missed the real link in his purchase email. That is supplied by the firm that handles the money for weirdkid.com.

Avoid like the plague both this product and the unpleasant fellow who sells it - . Yesterday I ordered and paid for the FULL WORKING VERSION. My money was very speedily and efficiently accepted and I got an e-mail directing me in detail precisely from where to download the software,how to install it, and containingg a Licence Key. I followed the given instructions to the letter, however, the download I received from the given link gave me only the Demo version and NOT the FULL WORKING VERSION. The instructions given in the e-mail as to how to REGISTER the product and get it working proved totally useless, as NOWHERE to be found was ANY "Register" button or option at all. Nowhere. I tried to re-download the software at least 3 times. - Same story each time. I sent at least 3 e-mails promptly to the Tech Support people over a period of some 12 hours, in increasily annoyed tones - all of which were totally ignored. This morning I get an email from one "Matt Hovey" telling me he did not like the tone of my e-mails, and simply refunding my payment !!!! At NO stage did I ever ask for a refund. All I EVER asked for was support in getting successfully downloaded to my computer that which I had ordered and paid for. What an absolutely DISGRACEFUL way in which to treat a paying customer. So I urge all of you to avoid this product and the thoroughly obnoxious guy who sells it. I will NOT be dealing with his company EVER again. A truly BAD experience. One learns the hard way, regrettably. Be WARNED.

Terrific software for handling different formats and let them flow into just one database. It also solved all my Outlook issues (so I can left home my work laptop and use my macbook). It is very fast and reliable (15 mins to convert a 2.5 gb .pst file with all the attachments: I lost days trying to convert it with O2M and I got a lot of errors anytime) Fantastic!

I purchased this product and didn't receive the email registration instructions and key. Emailed the author and have yet to hear back. Just be warned, the financial transaction happens quick but you don't get the product as quickly.

Excellent application! It just saved my emails from the bugged Apple Mail v 2.0 that destroyed my database without reason. It even converts your attachments to your new database, and it is rather fast as well. And yes, it works perfectly with Mac OS X 10.4.1 (Tiger). Features: It converts to and from almost any email app, and preserved the attachments and other stats in my case. 5 stars Ease of Use: Just select your old email database, tell it to what it has to convert and go. More advanced features available for each format, but you do not have to look at them if you don't want to. 5 stars Value: Invaluable, it saved my corrupt Mail v2.0 database and converted it to standard mbox files which Thunderbird can use. It is rather fast as well, about 50 times faster as Mail.app importing at least. 5 stars Stability: No crashes or bugs encountered yet. Also 5 stars.

Converted an *.eml attachment to mbox, so I was able to view the content of it in Apple Mail. Good. But since this was the first time in those five years I'm online that I have encountered this problem, I will probably not have much more use for this tool. Therefore the shareware fee is a bit too high in my opinion. But for someone who needs to convert thousands of messages the price might be probably just right, considering how much work it took to convert my OE5 mail to Apple Mail two years ago.

This saved my life! Beautiful app, I used it to recover 5500 messages locked in a Mac OS X Mail.app mailbox, no other program would read the mbox, but this program did without a hitch! Buy this and rest easy!
