Saving e-mail to a CD

Factual Questions
1

I run Windows ME and have a huge amount of e-mail I want to save to disc. The only way I’ve been able to figure out to do that is to save each individual e-mail (one at a time) to My Briefcase then copy the entire collection from there to burn on a CD.

I understand I can save to just about any location, folder or whatnot. What I wanna know, is there a way to take 20-30 e-mails all at once, out of my Inbox and save them somewhere else to be accessable to burn onto CD or a way to access Outlook Express within my burners program.

I have Adaptec Easy CD creator 4 and also have the capability to burn CD’s through RealOne Player.

Create a local folder in Outlook Express called, say, XYZ. Drag the emails into that folder.

Search for the file XYZ.dbx. Copy that file to the CD.

Once you’ve found the XYZ.dbx file, you have then found the folder where all of the email is stored. Simply burn that folder to the CD.

If you are using OE you can easily find the folder where all emails are stored. You will have a bunch of .dbx files there. You can make backups simply by copying all these files elsewhere.

You can also copy individual or several files to your desktop and have them appear as individual .eml files there which you can open or copy individually.
