Email Logger is an unique program to extract e-mail addresses from files on your hard disk, Floppy disk, MO, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM and Local area network. EML extracts electronic addresses from FIDO message bases, Internet mailboxes (Outlook, Outlook Express, The Bat!, Eudora Mail etc), newsgroup archives, Address Book, My Documents folder or any other file/folder on your machine!

1. Start extracting

Email Logger is an easy-in-use program. Press Start button on the toolbar to start extracting. By default it suggests extracting from a folder, but you also can specify a single file to process, entire disk or whole computer.

The other way to extract contact information is using of plug-ins. Installation package of Email Logger goes with some plug-ins that allows finding data in Internet browser's cache, Windows Clipboard, Outlook mailboxes etc. Visiting our official site you can download more plug-ins and expand the extraction.

You can terminate extraction at any time pressing Stop on the Toolbar. The number of processed files and found contact addresses is reflected on the Status bar in the bottom of the window.

2. Save results

Once the extraction is completed, Email Logger suggests removing the duplicate and suspicious contact addresses. It is recommended to perform both these actions to have the new mailing list clean. It also can be done later using the Edit menu.

Finally, you have to save the results. Use Edit menu or buttons on the Toolbar. Email Loggers allows saving to:

• Any text file;
• Windows Clipboard;
• MS Excel;
• MS Word;
• Atomic Mail Sender;
• Atomic Mail Verifier;
• Atomic TLD Filter

3. Verify e-mail address

Atomic Mail Verifier (AMV) is a program intended for checking whether an email address exists. AMV reads the list of email addresses contained either in a text file or in Windows Clipboard and checks whether they exist.

Syntax checking

Syntax checking consists of checking e-mail address for @ character and for allowed characters. The allowed characters are: '-', '.', '0'..'9', '@', 'A':'Z', '_' and 'a':'z'. This method of checkup is the fastest with average speed of checking reaching thousands of e-mail addresses per second.

Domain checking

Domain checking is performed by connecting to DNS servers and querying domain names of e-mail addresses (e.g. checking domain.com for existence for kate@domain.com e-mail address).

Complete SMTP checking

The complete e-mail address checkup is performed by connecting e-mail server(s) specified in domain's MX records, returned by DNS server during querying or directly to the domain name mail server in case that MX records are not found. Upon connecting to server the program tries to send mail to e-mail address being checked for validity.
