Exporting Emails

L

lumiuere

Hi there. I am trying to export my email folders (Inbox and Sent items)
and managed to do so by saving it as a Personal Folders File (in the
pst format). However, whenever I try to attach the file to an email or
upload it onto my server, I get an error message. Is it possible to
somehow get these two files off of the computer without saving it to a
hard disk or a zip disk?

Here are my issues:

1. The emails have to be saved in a recognizable email format (ie, a
Word or Excel format would not do) because I am having customer service
issues with a company and need to save our correspondence as evidence.
I want to be sure they cannot accuse me later of having manipulated the
email contents.

2. The computer I am currently using is not mine and everything I want
to save has to be taken off the computer soon.

3. The computer does not have a zip drive, cd-rom drive or a hard
drive. The only way to get any information off the computer is through
email or uploading onto my server.

Please help! Thank you!!

What error message are you getting, also Bullet Point 3 states it hasn't a
hard drive so I am unsure where you saved the Personal Folder File to.

Don't export the pst file, just use the one Outlook knows about.
Right-click on "Outlook Today", select "Properties", then "Advanced" and see
where the pst file is. Then, zip that file up and it will send as an
attachment.
