This EnScript is designed to convert Apple Mail application EMLX files to EML files that can be opened in a program such as Mozilla Thunderbird.

The script will process either all or selected EMLX files in a single blue-checked folder in the current view. Note that the folder should be blue-checked in the right-hand table pane and *not* the folder pane (which could inadvertently blue-check one or more sub-folders).

Each converted EMLX file will be written with an EML extension appended to its file-name. The structure of the folder(s) containing converted EMLX messages will be preserved; folders that don't contain converted EMLX messages won't be created.

In addition to writing each converted message as a separate file, the script will also write every converted message to a single MBOX-format file in a logical evidence file. The logical evidence file can be then brought back into EnCase, processed and the resultant e-mail data examined, searched and bookmarked in the usual way. The bookmark folder name is used for the name of the logical evidence file; also the name of output sub-folder created by the script.
