Forwarding multiple messages - inline, not as attachments

[brillisoft]

Looked for this hard, but didn't find - about to conclude that this
just does not exist in Outlook - just last check here.

Is there a way in Outlook to select multiple messages and forward them
bundled together, but not as attachments to the message, as Outlook
does by default - but as messages stringed one after the other,
inline?

There are email tools that are capable of that, e.g. Lotus Notes.
Didn't find a way to do this in Outlook.

Please advise if possible.

You could probably do it with a macro. Something along the lines of

Sub CombineAndPost()
Dim olItem As Outlook.MailItem
Dim olOutMail As Outlook.MailItem
Set olOutMail = Application.CreateItem(olMailItem)
With olOutMail
.To = "(e-mail address removed)"
.Subject = "Messages"
For Each olItem In ActiveExplorer.Selection
.Body = .Body & olItem.Subject & vbCr + vbCr & _
olItem.Body & _
"+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++" & vbCr + vbCr
Next olItem
.Display
End With
End Sub

Thanks.

I shall take this as a confirmation to my assumption that the Outlook
product, as is, is not capable of inline forwarding of multiple
messages.
Did not try the macro, but I believe that it will do the job - thanks
a lot for the tip!
