EDIT: I am not asking HOW to save email from Outlook in EML format. Hence this question is not a duplicate of How to save a mail into an .eml-file with Outlook? !

I cannot find any relevant reference to the missing full support for the EML format in Microsoft Outlook, i.e. including export. (And yes, I do know that you can open an EML file in Outlook :) )

Is it a deliberate Microsoft decision, why you cannot save emails in the EML format? Or is it only "low priority"? Is it a remnant of the many Microsoft vendor lock-in attempts from the past? Has Microsoft ever made any statement about this missing interoperability function?

According to your description, I have done a lot of search but I didn't find any Microsoft official documents introduced the related information. However, when saving and exporting email, we can find that only the following formats are supported:

Save emails:

Export emails:

.pst file / .csv file / .opml file

Therefore, it is not difficult to see that there is no one in it Options for EML. I don't think this needs to be tangled, just use the supported format.
