Download filename templates

Settings → Downloads decides how exported emails and attachments are named. Each field is a template made of tokens; a preview shows the result.

Field Adds Example
Email (.eml) filename Used when you export an email or drag it to the file system. .eml is added automatically. {date} ({from}-{to}) {subject} → 2026-05-22 14.05.33 (Alice Sender-Bob Recipient) Benachrichtigung….eml
Attachment filename Used when downloading or dragging out an attachment. Omit {filename}/{ext} to keep the original name and extension. {filename} → Invoice-2026-05.pdf
Multi-email zip filename Used when you drag out or download several emails as one archive. .zip is added automatically. emails-{count} → emails-3.zip

Date & time: {date}, {date_short}, {time}, {year}, {month}, {day}. People: {from}, {from_email}, {from_name}, {to}, {to_email}, {to_name}. Content: {subject}, {filename}, {name}, {ext}, {count}.
