Learning about .eml files

An .eml file is a plaintext version of an email which users can save to devices. 

These files can be sent and received via RFC822 compliant programs (RFC822 is formally the standard for ARPA Internet Text Messages). 

In Windows you can right-click on an .eml file and open it in Microsoft Word. 

Opening an .eml in Notepad you may see sections specifying DKIM-Signature designed to prevent email spoofing.
