E-mail Examiner is a special version of Mailbag Assistant that we develop together with Paraben Corp. It is designed for the forensics community and helps investigators examine email messages.

If your work involves forensic email examination, we recommend using E-mail Examiner (EMX). Starting with version 5.0, EMX includes Aid4Mail Console and provides seamless access to it. As a result, all Aid4Mail features are also available to customers of Paraben's EMX 5.x. Other EMX benefits include reporting and export functions while maintaining forensic integrity by using MD5 hash values, not allowing emails to be replied to, recovering deleted/deleted emails from PST files, support for AOL email, and access to Paraben's forensic support team.
