01. Main Features


Features of the MSG Attachment Extractor

The SysCurve MSG Attachment Extractor is built for fast, predictable attachment collection across large MSG sets. It keeps originals untouched, preserves names, and writes clear logs so you always know what was extracted and where it was stored.


Download

Batch add folders and subfolders

Use Add Folder to point at a parent directory. The tool loads every MSG file inside subfolders automatically, saving hours of manual selection for legal and mailbox export workloads. It is ideal for large case folders and multi-user exports. You can process nested structures in one run.

Two output modes

Pick Hierarchical to mirror your source folder tree at the destination, or Consolidated to drop every attachment into one flat folder for quick review. This flexibility supports audits and fast scanning. You can switch modes per job without reloading files. It keeps output consistent with your workflow.

Inline image extraction

Capture embedded graphics from the message body (signatures, pasted screenshots, diagrams) in addition to standard paperclip attachments. This prevents missing context in legal or project records. Inline assets are saved as normal image files. Standard attachments are exported at the same time.

Original file names preserved

Attachments keep their native names for easy identification. When duplicates are found in Consolidated mode, the tool resolves conflicts with safe suffixes so nothing is overwritten. This maintains traceability across exports. It also helps with quick matching during review.

Attachment filters

Optional filters help you reduce noise: skip specific extensions, include only certain types (documents, images, archives), or ignore zero-byte files. This keeps output focused on what matters. Filters speed up processing on large datasets. They are easy to configure before each run.

Preview before extraction

Built-in, read-only viewer shows From/To/CC, Subject, Sent/Received time, body, and attachment list so you can verify content without Outlook. This cuts mistakes and confirms scope. Previewing also helps validate case selection. Everything stays read-only.

Standalone (no Outlook)

Processes both Unicode and ANSI MSG files using built-in readers, making it ideal for machines without Outlook installed. This simplifies deployment on servers or review workstations. You can run the tool in locked-down environments. No client configuration is needed.

Fast batch engine with logs

Optimized for large folders. Progress indicators and a summary log show processed files, saved attachments, and any skipped items. This makes audits and reporting easy. Long jobs can be reviewed quickly after completion.
