Export emails to store them on a flash drive?

Can I export emails in order to store them on a flash drive?

Hi there @8ender, thanks for reaching out to the Bell Community. 

When using Bell webmail you can easily save an email message by selecting 'Save as EML file' under the dropdown menu within the email.

The process will vary if you are using a third party email client such as Outlook, or Aqua Mail.

Have a nice day 🙂

This method only allows me to save an individual email.  How do I save more than one, that is, an entire folder?  When I select all emails in a folder, the "Save as EML file" link cannot be accessed.

Good Day & Welcome to the Bell Community Forum.

If you wish to save all of the emails that you have that are in a Bell Webmail folder to one file; Select > the webmail folder that you wish to have the emails saved from. Select > All box. Select > More. Select > Print. This will open your Window 10 or 11 Print Window. Select > Microsoft Print to PDF. Choose a file name & save. This saves all of the emails in the selected folder to one file on your computer.

FYI Only.

EML files are emails in file form. The easiest way to open them is to use an email client such as Outlook, Windows Mail, or Thunderbird. You can usually open it by double-clicking the EML file. If that doesn't work, right-click the file, select Open with, and select your mail client.

Take care.

The solution offered by @WelshTerrier only allows 5 e-mails to be saved at a time.  Are there any other solutions?

Good Day.

That is correct. If you wish to print Bell webmail with a browser, you are limited to a maximum of 5 emails at a time.

There are a number of other printing solutions available. These require you to use an email client such as Microsoft Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.

Take care
