It depends upon how the emails were constructed. I get ezine emails that have links to the web. If I were to cut and paste them into a document, I might bring the links with the formatting. That could explain the extra time. Use Edit > Links to see if there are any Internet links listed there. If there are, that is likely your problem especially if you are on dial-up.
