Copying Gmail conversations?
Copying Gmail conversations?
Hi, calling all Gmail users............
I've been trying to save emails/conversations in Gmail to a folder so that I can have access to a hard copy - just in case the universe explodes and everything on the Gmail server is lost!
Anyway, failed miserably so far, I don't seem to be able to copy and paste anything but the first message in a conversation and even then the date's not there. I've tried Save As which it will do but then I'm unable to open it again, says I need to enable cookies (cookies are enabled).
Help???

I could be talking out of the back of my head, but I think that if you connect your Outlook to Gmail with POP3 and not with Mail Forwading then any outgoing messages sent from your Gmail web interface are then automatically downloaded to your Outlook next time they connect and sync.HelenB wrote:Hi, I just download mine to Outlook or Outlook express occasionally. It doesn't do the conversation though, only the received mail..
POP3 sounds scary, but the Gmail help pages talk you through this very well indeed.
I access all my gmail through Outlook, it was very easy to set up through pop3. I use it as my main account now.
Sort of related, has anyone had any problems with their gmail e mails being rejected recently? Most of the spam I'm getting through now are from gmail addresses and I was wondering if some ISPs were rejecting them now as spam.

Thanks all of you, I did that this afternoon but Outlook just kept rejecting my password so I gave up! However, I'd obviously done something stupid so I've just removed it, installed it again and now Outlook is currently downloading 465 emails Filtering of past emails would have been a good option! Looks like I'll be busy sifting through that lot tonight and then I can put booking emails in some sort of order.........
Thanks again chaps and chapesses,

Complete failure!! It seems I have 2166 emails in my Gmail account so why did it only choose 465 of them to send to Outlook. Not one of the enquiries were sent and it wasn't just because they were 'conversations' either, some emails that I'd received but not responded to didn't make it either
Any ideas?
