Why Teams Use an Email Address Extractor
Copying addresses by hand from one message after another takes days and misses the ones inside attachments. A batch run reads every folder at once and hands back a list ready for a contact sheet or a campaign tool.
Core features
Install, add a source, select fields and folders, then extract.
Install
Run the setup file and start the extractor on Windows. The window then waits for a data file, a client profile or an account.
Folder selection
Browse to a data file or choose a configured desktop client. For a mail server, enter the email address, password and port number, and the folders load on screen.
Message preview
Tick From, To, Cc, Subject, Message Body or Message Header to set where addresses come from. Untick folders that are not needed, such as junk.
Selective backup
Search modes narrow the run to the messages that matter, so the TXT list holds only wanted addresses.
Output options
Press Extract, review the count in the results pane and save. The addresses go to a TXT file at the chosen path.
Before the run
Three quick checks give a clean list.
Source data
Know the Mail Source
Locate the data file or the configured client profile. Server accounts need login details and a port number.
Search scope
Folders or all mail
Run all folders for a full list, or tick Inbox and Sent Items alone to list people already in contact.
Fields
Choose where to look
Sender, recipient, copy, subject, body and header fields all have tick boxes. Attachments add addresses from PDF and Word files.
Other mail formats are covered in Extract email addresses from EML files and Extract email addresses from Thunderbird.

User testimonials
Ratings from 543 users who pulled email IDs from mail data through Corbett.
Collected across 543 reviews drawn from portals and emails, left as written.
In the past years, I had retrieved all my emails but there was a need to revive all the email addresses for future reference. I had tried to do it manually but was not that easy. So, I found the Email Address Extractor software with a feature ‘Search & Filter’ which addressed my problem and sorted it out with ease.
It had become a very monotonous job to select and search for email addresses one by one. After some research, I found the Corbett Email address extractor tool with an additional feature of ‘Extract email addresses from attachments’ and got all the email addresses in TXT file format.
To take the backup of important email IDs from the specific folders, I tried extracting the information. It was very cumbersome to do the task manually. I was grateful to have found this Email Address Extractor software that extracted all the email addresses from a folder in a lesser time.
