Extract Attachments

Upload your EML or MSG email file using the button above. Our tool scans the email, identifies all attachments, and extracts them. Download all attachments as a ZIP file containing each file in its original format. The process is automatic and typically completes in seconds.

We support EML format (standard email format used by most email clients) and MSG format (Microsoft Outlook). Export emails from your email client to obtain these files. Gmail, Outlook, Thunderbird, and most other clients can save emails in compatible formats.

Yes, attachments are extracted exactly as they were attached to the email, in their original file formats with original filenames. Documents, images, spreadsheets, and any other file types are preserved without modification.

If no attachments are found in the email file, you'll receive a notification indicating this. The email may have been forwarded without attachments, attachments may have been removed, or the email may simply have been text-only.

The free tool processes one email file at a time. ChatSlide AI offers batch extraction where you can upload multiple email files and extract all attachments from all emails in a single operation, organized by email or combined in one archive.

Yes, images embedded directly in the email body (inline images) are extracted along with traditional file attachments. All extractable media content from the email is included in the download.

Attachments are packaged in a ZIP file with original filenames preserved. If multiple attachments have the same name, they're automatically renamed to prevent conflicts. The extraction maintains file organization for easy access.

The free tool supports email files up to 50MB total, which accommodates most emails with typical attachments. There's no fixed limit on attachment count. Very large attachments within the email are extracted completely.

Yes, email files are processed securely with encrypted upload, processing on isolated servers, and automatic deletion afterward. We don't access, store, or share your email content or extracted attachments. The process is fully automated.

Most extractions complete in 5-15 seconds depending on attachment count and size. Emails with large or numerous attachments take longer to process and package. The extraction handles all processing automatically.
