User Reviews

  • Really glad to find and try this alpha-version. It takes some getting used to, but so far its a great simple tool for searching and reviewing .mbox files, particularly Gmail takeouts. Some suggestions/wants for future consideration: - extract/display unique ID in csv output; - or if print individual emails to html/pdf, enable the unique filename of the pdf or html to part of the csv output, possibly with their filepath (so they can be located or linked to); - similar for attachments to emails - output their unique ID or hash, and path in csv output; - enable email attachment metadata and text to also be part of csv output. I know that is probably asking alot. Thanks for the effort so far. Not a coder but happy to help/test. I sent a small donation by paypal.
  • This is easy to use and is helping me edit my gmail account. Although you can search for a range of dates, I wish you could simply order the entire file and I have sent a Twitter to the author just now.
  • Love the utility. It missed out on one star as it is missing Open File option, it only has Open Folder. This is missing both in GUI & commandline. I was intending to use it an an external viewer for WinSCP where I'd need a command invocation something like [utility fullpath] <winscp temporary filename>.
  • The product allows you to view and MBOX in a decently formatted fashion. The only suggestion would be to allow EXPORTS of Selected Email or ALL EMAIL to TXT or PRINT directly a particular Email. But in-lieu of importing into Thunderbird, this is a nice quick solution.. THANKS!
