MSG and EML files have the same structure, plain text as defined in RFC2822. When you slect a messgae in TB and press F9 you'll how your current mesage appears in that format.

I no longer have the old mail client nor the original messages. I'm going to evaluate if it's possible to convert the files into MSG or EML format - preferably using a script or application of some sort.

Any suggestions on finding MSG and EML file structure information?

Your problem is that this file isn't a valid message format, so TB  won't recognize it. I don't know whether you still have got the messages in the original format of your previous mail client, but maybe you can export them to a valid mail format.

Below is a sample email that was exported from an old email client to HTML format. What can I do to have it nicely import into The Bat? I tried the /IMPORT command but the none of the headers would populate, and the message body would only include the closing Body & HTML tags.

Thank you.
