Save them as openable files, you mean, or save them so you can reformat your drive and put them back later?

For the first one, as far as I know, no. For the second, yes, but I can't remember offhand. Google about a bit and you'll probably find it, or I can try and remember/find the instructions again when I get home, if you like. It's something to do with finding out where OE is storing your emails, copying the whole folder, formatting youre drive/whatever, then copying the folder back. So tis useless if you're wanting to read the emails in the meantime, but it's a good way to not lose your emails with a reset.

It took me years to figure this out--cos once you save them individually, you can't put them back in your OE folders. Not easily, anyway.
