Downloading messages to keep offline

astrodog73 · 16 Mar 2016, 08:53 AM

Is there any way to do this now? I used to 'download to zip' or something similar in the old interface, could do a bunch of messages at once....
There doesn't seem to be a way (that is obvious) now....
Basically I want to keep an offline copy of some messages, with all header info etc.....
I could cut/paste the raw message into a text file, but that is pretty laborious and not very elegant.....

cheers

I don't think you can anymore, perhaps log in to the old UI and try.

Go to the Settings>Folders screen and use the Mass delete or remove duplicates link at the bottom of the page.

Wow that is nice to know. I have only just starting to use the current UI and I must say some things in it seem so silly, I mean why put some of the buttons at the bottom of the folder list I wonder how many people have missed it ?
