Emailchemy is a Java-based cross-platform tool for email conversion, migration and management. The tool converts emails from closed proprietary file formats (including some less supported legacy email applications) to standard durable plaintext portable formats (such as RFC-2822 or CSV files) that can be analyzed, archived, imported into IMAP-compatible email applications or uploaded to Google Apps. Additional utilities support message de-duplication, email archive splitting/merging and sorting, and email address harvesting functions.
