Describe the change
Email scanner was using dynamic population of output using unspecified key:value pairs. While this allowed for more data to be extracted from email headers, it was providing inconsistent results making it more difficult to build confident detection. By specifying fields to be collected, users can now search for specific fields.

Describe testing procedures
Tested against 12+ .EML and other email files.

Sample output
