MBOX Viewer - Open MBOX Email Archives on Android & Online

An MBOX file packs an entire mailbox, sometimes thousands of messages, into one plain-text archive. Thunderbird and Apple Mail store mail this way, and Google Takeout delivers Gmail exports as MBOX. Android mail apps, however, will not open such an archive.

GroupDocs.Viewer Cloud renders the archive on the server and sends back HTML pages, PDF files, JPG or PNG images, so the messages inside become readable on any device. Page navigation and thumbnails help you move through a large mailbox, and a request can cover selected pages when only part of it matters.

For app developers, email archive support amounts to a few REST calls. The Java SDK for Android is on Maven and Gradle with code samples, handles password-protected files, and reads 180+ formats through the same integration.

If you just exported your mail and want to read it now, the free online GroupDocs.Viewer app opens an MBOX file in the browser at no cost. Developers evaluating the API get a free trial and can test each call in the API Explorer.
