Email Extractor

Email Extractor is a tiny Java-based application with a single goal in mind: it is designed to automatically locate all email addresses from a given web page and extract them to a text document. It doesn't contain any other options, so it can be handled by anyone, even inexperienced users.

No setup necessary, besides Java

As long as you have Java installed on your PC, you don't need anything else. This means that you can drop Email Extractor's .jar file anywhere on the disk and simply click it to launch the app. There is also the option to save it to a USB storage unit (like a pen drive) to be able to directly run it on any computer with Java installed. Worth mentioning is that, unlike most installers, it doesn't add new entries to the Windows registry or Start menu, thus leaving no traces behind after its removal.

Clear-cut interface and options

The user-friendly interface is represented by a small window that contains a dialog box, where you can enter the website address as the starting URL. Email Extractor will check this page as well as all its derivative pages for email addresses, and display them in the main window.

View and export email addresses

The scanner can be stopped anytime with the click of a button. Afterward, you can browse the list with all email addresses and save it to file with the CSV format by specifying the output file name and directory. There are no other notable options available here.

Evaluation and conclusion

Unfortunately, the utility doesn't integrate any customization settings. For instance, it's not possible to filter the email addresses or set the subpage level for the scanner.
Unsurprisingly, CPU and RAM consumption was minimal in our tests, so the app didn't hog system resources. Although it contains only basic options, Email Extractor delivers a simple solution to extracting email addresses from websites.
