How to Convert IncrediMail Emails to Outlook?
IncrediMail is one of the most
remarkable and non-conventional email clients on today’s market offering a host
of message decoration options, colorful themes and animated notifications. All
these blows and whistles create a unique communication environment and user
experience that appeals to the creative kind and everyone else bored with
lackluster and business-like interfaces of the more commonplace email
applications. However, the program appears to be quite intrusive in terms of
placing its shortcut in the Startup folder, replacing the default search
services and browser start page, among other things. This excessive penetration
into the user’s system becomes irritating for people who prefer more control
over their operating system, browsers and commonly used software. Besides, as
colorful and fun as it is, IncrediMail can hardly be called a proper piece of
software for corporate or business use, which is exactly why so many people
abandon it after having played with it for a while.
IncrediMail has always stored its data
in proprietary formats.Delimited text file for messages, but starting from
version 2.0, the program uses files, its own database format that is completely
incompatible with any existing alternative clients. Since emails are stored in
the database and attachments are saved to an outside folder, it’s nearly
impossible to create associated message/attachment pairs without knowing the
internal format and, therefore, using third-party tools.
IncrediMail and start dragging and
dropping the necessary messages onto your desktop or to a particular folder on
the hard drive. Please note that each new file will have the same name, so you
will have to rename the previously extracted one to avoid a naming conflict.
As you can imagine, migrating over a dozen messages using this method
will soon turn into an exercise in futility. Therefore, if you need more
automation, we recommend resorting to alternative approaches.
