Paul, Remo, Beth,
Thanks for the useful information.
I tried the Export feature as you suggested, creating a Category and
Exporting by Category.
It worked reliably and it seemed quicker than dragging to a .mbox on the
Desktop!
But...
It doesn't retain Read/Unread status, Message status, the actual Received
time, etc.
ie. it seems no different than dragging to a .mbox !!
Looks like I may have to use .pst files after all :-(
Tell me I've done something wrong!!
Many Thanks,
sgr
