Convert Outlook .msg and MIME .eml email files to Markdown with a versioned output contract, preserving headers (From, To, CC, BCC, Date, Importance), the body (HTML reduced to Markdown, or plain text), and an attachments table. Use when the user wants to convert, read, or process a .msg or .eml email into Markdown, or extract its attachments.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Email (.msg / .eml) to Markdown Converter

Convert Outlook `.msg` and MIME `.eml` email into clean, structured Markdown at
**Tier 0 (no ML)**, preserving headers, body, and attachment metadata. Every
output carries the same versioned **unified output contract** (YAML frontmatter:
`contract-version`, `tier`, `source-file`, `content-type`, `ingestion-date`, and a
nested `ingestion-quality` block) that `file-to-markdown` emits, so a downstream
context layer ingests email exactly as it ingests documents.

This is a pure-Python skill. `.msg` is read via `olefile` + first-party MAPI
decoding; `.eml` via the Python stdlib. No Node.js, no ML/OCR model, no network
call.

## Output rendering

<!-- agentbundle:output-rendering:start -->
Lead with the useful outcome or next action. Use warm, non-blaming language and everyday words. Define an unfamiliar term in a few plain words before naming it; keep proper names and exact technical terms intact.
During tool work, do not narrate routine calls. Send an update only for safety, a blocker, a needed decision, a material scope change, a long wait, or an active host requirement.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eugenelim/agent-ready-repo/msg-to-markdown@sha256:0250453154dd277f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.fd59e28, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
