A student had the following question..

I had a situation yesterday where I needed to put several emails in a folder
and then e-mail that folder to someone else. Joyce and I couldn’t figure out
how to do it so we had to paste them to a word document and then e-mail that
document. What did we do wrong?

Hi Kelli,

you could create a new/additional  Personal Folder PST file with the name:
"Documents" (File/Open/Personal Folder (.PST).

Create a new folder in this PST file like "Emails".

Move or copy the emails you like to send into this new Documents.PST file.

Close this Documents.PST file (click on Documents/right mouseclick/close
Documents.pst)

Search on your harddisk for *.pst and then you can send this "Documents.pst"
via email.

The reciever must move this PST on his harddisk and must open Outlook and
under "File/Open/Datafile" hecan select this "Documents.PST" and can open
all the emails.

That won't work in all versions, because .pst files are on the blocked files list in some versions. I'd use a zip file myself and store msg files in it.

Hi Sue,

you could also zip the PST file but you are right:

>I'd use a zip file myself and store msg files in it.

this is realy the faster way. :-)

Why not just select all the mails that need to be sent, then drag them
(together) into the new message?
