How to Use Your .eml File

For perfect formatting, open the .eml file with a desktop email client like Outlook, Apple Mail, or Thunderbird (free).

  1. Download the .eml file from this tool.
  2. Find and double-click the file in your downloads.
  3. It will open as a new, fully formatted draft. Just add a recipient and send!

This method lets you open and send from the Gmail web interface without a separate app.

  1. Install the free Chrome extension: Gmail™ EML Viewer by cloudHQ.
  2. In Gmail, click Compose.
  3. Drag and drop your downloaded .eml file into the new email body.
  4. The extension will open your designed email in the compose window.

If you can't use the methods above, you can copy the styled content.

  1. Open the downloaded .eml file with a simple text editor (like TextEdit on Mac or Notepad on Windows).
  2. You will see the raw HTML code. Select and copy everything from <!DOCTYPE html> to </html>.
  3. In Gmail, click Compose. Right-click in the email body and select "Inspect".
  4. In the developer tools panel, find the editable content area (usually a <div>). Right-click it and select "Edit as HTML".
  5. Delete the existing content and paste your copied HTML code. Close the developer tools to see your formatted email.

How to build an HTML email

Add your headings, text, images, and buttons, arrange them, and preview the layout. When it looks right, copy the HTML and paste it into your email or newsletter tool. It runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

Why build in HTML

A clean HTML email looks more professional than plain text and lets you add branding, buttons, and structure. Keeping it simple is what makes it render reliably across email apps.
