Dear Den,

Thank you for considering Aspose.

I haven't been able to find a way to open eml format in Microsoft Outlook (It does open a new email with the eml attached when you double click a eml file). However you can use MS Word 2003 to open and edit eml file.

Let me know if you need more help

1. EML is an open email format. Microsoft Outlook Express and Other Outlook version support this format quit well.

2. Aspose.Network does not support saving messages to msg formats now.

Thanks

Or perhpas, you can save the mail message to mht format with MailMessage.Save(filename, MessageType.Mht); Then the email message will be converted to mht format, you can use IE to open it.

I don't know why you cannot open *.eml file in Microsoft Outlook -- it works perfect here.

Thanks
