Can mac mail read eml files

Yes, macOS Mail can read EML files. EML files are a type of email file that contains the contents of an email message, including the header, body, and attachments.

To open an EML file in macOS Mail, you can follow these steps:

  1. Locate the EML file on your computer. EML files typically have a ".eml" extension.
  2. Right-click (or control-click) on the EML file and select "Open With" from the context menu.
  3. In the "Open With" window, select "Mail" from the list of available applications.
  4. Click "Open" to open the EML file in Mail.

Alternatively, you can also drag and drop the EML file into the Mail app's window. This will also open the file in Mail.

Once the EML file is open in Mail, you can view the email message, including the header, body, and attachments. You can also reply to the email, forward it, or save it to your email account.

Note that if the EML file is encrypted or has a password, you may need to enter the password or decryption key to access the contents of the file.
