I dont think there is an existing utility from Blueprism to read eml files. I do have similar need to extract mail body text from eml file type stored in a physical drive. Now am trying to find some vb or c# code to handle my need. If anybody able provide some pointer will be heplful.Thanks

Do you have any solutions for this?

I can see several options:
1) Tweak Outlook VBO to open actual eml and read it. Sould work for both attached eml and file on disk.
2) Same thing with EWS - eml attachment is almost like regular message for the api.
3) Use 3rd party tools to open eml files: https://askubuntu.com/questions/28135/how-to-open-eml-files

Which way is better depends on vbo you use for mail and your final goal.
