Export eml to memory stick

Possible or not? I want to export some eml's from my W10 pc Thunderbird Local Folders to a memory stick ... for travel purposes. My eml's are both Gmail and POP3.

My devices on which I will read these eml's are Android; I have installed Gmail and K-9Mail apps. How can I open such mails stored on mem stick plugged into mobile device ... I have tried but the eml's do not appear to be recognised. A Thunderbird app is not available for mobile devices.

Obviously one solution is to copy these eml's to Word and store this format on the mem stick but it would be very convenient to be able to use without conversion. Another solution is simply to 'send' the eml's from pc to Android but I would prefer not to keep them on my portable devices. Cheers Ron

Thanks ... you gave me some clues. If I Download eg a stored email file from a Mem Stick into an Office Suite/File Commander App, I can then open the email within the app. It seems that Office Suite app supports .eml but not direct from a USB Mem Stick, only from its own internal storage.
