Key Features
What It Does Univik Foxmail Converter, feature by feature
Univik Foxmail Converter covers eight tasks from one window.
Works Without Foxmail Installed
Univik Software opens the account files itself, so Foxmail needs no installation and no open window. Converters that need a client export first stop working when Foxmail will not start. The preview shows every configured account with its emails, contacts, calendars and attachments. A double-click opens an attachment.
Opens a Storage Folder From a Dead PC
Univik Software opens a Storage folder copied off a dead drive. Point Browse at the copy and all account folders inside it appear on a new PC with their Mails, Boxes and Account.rec0 files. Foxmail is not needed there.
Emails, Contacts and Calendars Together
Foxmail accounts store more than mail. Univik Foxmail Converter opens address books and calendars with mail. Contacts export as VCF files and calendars as ICS files, which Outlook and Google both import.
Batch Foxmail Converter for Large Stores
Tick accounts and folders and Univik Software converts them as one batch. Testing on a store of 2 accounts and 86,000 emails took about 42 minutes. Inbox, Sent and custom folders came out under the same names.
Twelve Output Targets
Eight file types sit on the Export menu, from PST and MBOX to PDF and SQL Script. Live targets are Gmail, Office 365, IMAP and a Thunderbird profile.
Extract Addresses, Phone Numbers and Photos
Extract menu entries export email addresses, phone numbers, matching address and phone pairs, contact photos and attachments as standalone files.
Your Storage Folder Stays Unchanged
Univik Software opens Mails, Boxes and Account.rec0 in read-only mode and creates PST, MBOX, VCF and ICS files in a separate output folder. Your Storage folder stays as Foxmail left it, so you can repeat the conversion or open the client afterwards.
Problem
Why Your Foxmail Mail Is Hard to Move
Years of mail, contacts and calendars sit in your Foxmail Storage folder. Moving them to another program leaves you two options and both have a catch.
Foxmail's Own Export Handles One Folder at a Time
Foxmail exports a folder to .eml files only while the client is open. One pass covers one folder and carries the mail alone. Address book and calendar exports are separate, so a full mailbox takes many manual steps.
Other Converters Want Exported Files First
Converters that need an export from the client first still depend on Foxmail opening. If Foxmail will not start or the old PC is gone, that option is closed.
Open the Foxmail Storage Folder Directly
Univik Foxmail Converter skips the export step and opens the Storage folder itself. Univik Software lists configured accounts and exports mail, contacts and calendars to PST, MBOX, PDF, VCF or ICS. Convert a copy of the Storage folder and keep the old PC until message counts match.
Inside the Store
Where Foxmail Keeps Your Accounts
Storage
Account Folder
Foxmail 7.x keeps mail in a Storage folder inside its own program folder. Account subfolders in Storage carry the email address as their name.
Mails, Boxes
Mail and Index
In an account folder, Mails contains one file per message in data subfolders and Boxes maps all messages to their folders. Message 2824 in a Foxmail 7.2 sample store sits at Mails\8\24\2824. Account.rec0 next to Mails contains the account settings.
FMStorage.list
Where the Data Really Is
If mail was moved off the program folder, FMStorage.list records its real path. Univik Foxmail Converter follows that path, so you don't have to look for mail yourself.
Three Steps
Three StepsHow to Convert Foxmail Without Foxmail
Univik Software needs only the Storage folder. With the folder copied, Foxmail needs no installation and exports nothing.
1
Open the Storage Folder
Click Open and the converter lists accounts configured in Foxmail. On a new PC, click Browse instead and select the Storage folder you copied across.
2
Choose Data and Format
Tick the accounts and folders, choose mail, contacts or calendars, then open the Export menu. Choose PST for Outlook, MBOX for Thunderbird or Apple Mail, PDF for a records folder or IMAP to fill a live mailbox.
3
Start and Match the Counts
Start the batch. When it ends, compare message counts in the output folder with the account tree before you retire the old PC.

Who Uses It
Who Uses ItWhen You Need a Foxmail Converter
Three situations suit Foxmail converter software from Univik, from a move to Outlook to a PC that will not start Foxmail.
Moving to Outlook or Microsoft 365
Outlook opens PST files directly. One PST per account carries all folders across. Contacts and calendars arrive as VCF and ICS files beside the PST.
Foxmail Will Not Start on the PC
Foxmail crashes on launch or the old machine is dead, yet its Storage folder is still accessible. Copy that folder, browse to the copy and all accounts open.
Mail Archived as Records
Contracts, invoices and client mail have to stay available for years, longer than an email client lasts. Mail exported as PDF opens in common PDF software. Contacts exported as VCF open in common address book apps.
Finding Your Files
Where Foxmail Stores Your Data on Disk
Storage path
Foxmail keeps everything on your own computer. In version 7.x data sits in a Storage folder inside the program folder, for example C:\Program Files\Foxmail 7.2\Storage, with one subfolder per account named after its email address. If someone pointed the client at another drive, FMStorage.list in the program folder records the real path.
Close Foxmail first if it is open, because it can still change the Storage folder. Copy the full folder to a Windows 11 or 10 PC and leave the original in place until you check output. Single account folders work too.
Univik Software opens the copy from a USB stick, a network share or an external drive, so a new machine never needs Foxmail.
Messages exported from the client are plain .eml files. Open one .eml message at a time with the free Univik EML File Viewer.
Foxmail's own Mail Archive tool creates .fox files, one per account. Univik offers a FOX File Converter and a FOX File Viewer for those archives.
Side by Side
Three Ways Out of Foxmail
If one folder is all you need, try the client’s own Export Mail first. For a full store with contacts and calendars, Export Mail stops short, as the table shows.
| What you need | Foxmail Export Mail | Converters Needing an Export First | Univik Foxmail ConverterTRIAL |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | No charge | Paid | From $39 |
| Works without Foxmail open | No | No, export needs Foxmail | Yes |
| Opens a folder from a dead PC | No | Only exported files | Yes |
| All accounts in one batch | One folder at a time | Varies | Yes |
| Contacts and calendars too | Separate menus | Varies | VCF and ICS |
| Makes PST, MBOX or PDF | .eml only | Yes | Yes |
Foxmail's own Export Mail is free and works well for one folder of messages. Export Mail cannot help once you have many accounts or a PC where the client will not open.
