This tutorial covers Outlook email forensics, MSG file analysis, EML conversion for digital forensics investigators, and email header analysis, all inside Mesher's forensic platform without leaving the tool or hunting for third-party software.
Whether you're a digital forensics examiner, IT security analyst, legal investigator, or just getting started in email forensics, this walkthrough is for you.
In this video I'll show you what the difference between MSG and EML files actually is, why it matters for forensic analysis, and how to convert your Outlook emails directly inside Mesher without ever leaving the platform.
Mesher's forensics engine runs on EML files. They are the complete, unaltered raw representation of an email, giving the system everything it needs to perform a full header and metadata analysis. But if you are working with emails exported from Microsoft Outlook, you are most likely dealing with MSG files instead. Same email, completely different format, and without a conversion step, not something Mesher can analyze directly.
Rather than leaving you to find a workaround mid-investigation, Mesher handles the conversion natively. Upload your MSG file and Mesher transforms it into a properly formatted EML file with headers, metadata, and body content fully intact, ready for analysis just like any other file in the system. From that point forward your converted file goes through the exact same forensics pipeline as every other email in your case. No shortcuts, no data loss, no gaps.
A file format should never be the thing that blocks an investigation. Works for beginners getting started in email forensics and seasoned professionals alike.
