lorac Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I have all of the Newsletters going back to February 2007 when I first started to receive them. Is there anyway that I can copy them over to my hard drive? I'm cleaning out my email files and I have over 2,000 Newsletters. I'll probably never read them again, but I don't want to trash them. You never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggieB Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 There used to be a way to back up your email when you were getting new hard/soft ware. Not sure how it works to read them again, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhbren Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I don't know how to back up or copy whole newsletters from email. But I do copy tutorials from the newsletters, paste them into a word document, and save them in a tutorial folder. Of course, you'd have to re-read the newsletters . . .

Nica Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Considering that they have archived the newsletters on the blog and it's searchable, it may not be worth trying to save them yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRS Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Wow, that's a lot of saving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorac Posted November 27, 2013 Author Share Posted November 27, 2013 Wow, that's a lot of saving! You're right Carla, that is a lot of saving. Maybe I'll just leave them where they are and get rid of some other stuff in my email account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
healthyscraps Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Carol, I print my email to PDF if I need to save a copy. Not sure if that helps any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoky Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Carol, do you not get your email to Thunderbird or Outlook or something like that? Because all you have to do is go to File>Save and select a folder on your computer to store it in. There are emails that I have to save going back to the 90's, and they number in the thousands. I've just moved them from computer to computer through the years! As long as they have the .eml file extension, I can open them in any email program, regardless of how old it is or what program it came from. If you use webmail exclusively, then that does seem to be more complicated. I've got at least 4 email addresses to keep track of, I'd be lost without Thunderbird, LOL.

I'm just going to keep them on Yahoo! and not worry about moving them to my computer. I never heard of Thunderbird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
