[Ham-Computers] Folder? What Folder? Help!

[Preston Graham]

One way, which you probably already know, is to open each Email, one at a 
time, "select all", copy, then paste into a word processing program.  From 
there you can save them in any folder on the C drive you want.  Want to do 
this 200 times?  One problem, the From/To heading is not included in the 
"select all".
