What is an MBOX File?

MBOX (Mail Box) is a standard file format used for storing email messages. It's widely supported by email clients including Gmail, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and others. MBOX files are commonly used for email backup, archival, and migration between different email systems.

An MBOX file stores multiple emails in a single text-based file, making it ideal for long-term storage, legal compliance, and transferring large amounts of email data efficiently.
