How Do I Upload Email Files to Mary?
Last updated: September 29, 2025
Context
When creating chronologies or uploading documents to Mary, users often need to include email communications. Understanding which email file formats are supported and how to handle unsupported formats is essential for efficiently managing email documentation in the platform.
Answer
Currently, Mary supports the following email file formats:
.eml files (supported in beta)
PDF files (fully supported)
If you have emails in .msg format (common in Outlook and some Document Management Systems), you have several options:
Option 1: Export as .eml directly from Outlook
If your emails are in Outlook, you can export them directly as .eml files:
Option 2: Convert to PDF
If you cannot export as .eml, converting to PDF is currently the most reliable alternative. You can:
Use tools like BundleDocs for bulk conversion
Print to PDF directly from your email client
Important: Support for .msg files is planned to be implemented in the near future (within 1-2 weeks as of the latest update), which will allow direct upload of Outlook .msg files.
