Or you could create an incoming message filter. Make it a common filter if using multiple accounts. Something like:- Condition: Any Message Action: Export the message - path/to/folder/%subj.txt Export format: plain text When destination file exists: increment file name (define a template if you want it different to the usual "saved message" template for the account) Set it to be Active, executed only by hotkey. If it's a common filter, share with whatever accounts. Select a group of messages and press your hotkey combination - they will be saved in your specified windows folder. If the folder doesn't exist, it will be created - well it was here when testing, anyway. HTH -- Best regards, MFPA CAUTION! - Beware of Warnings!
