Print part of string

I have a file called file.txt
It contains strings:

ALT=someone@acme.com
TO=whoever@lalalulu.com

How could find and print the actual address after the = sign for any given instance? I need the command to print one of them - for example

someone@acme.com

But have in mind that this address can change and will not necessarily be the same next time when the command is executed. So ALT= or TO= should serve as flags pointing to what I need

So basically I need to print the remaining text in a line after a matching string in a file called file.txt

Thanks!
