[2024-04-07] Copy and Paste selected messages from the Message List (can be pasted to new message as .EML file, File Explorer, or any other program supporting standard file paste functionality)
You can now copy messages from the Message List as .EML files. Just highlight a few of them and from the Edit menu choose the Copy option (or press CTRL+C). These copied messages can then be pasted into email messages under composition as .EML file attachments (just like any other file attachments), but also you can paste them outside of OE Classic, such as in File Explorer, in Windows desktop, in another file management program and so on. This makes it possible to export messages out of OE Classic, for example not the entire folder but only a few selected messages, which should make management of messages much easier. Up until now, it was only possible to drag and drop messages into OE Classic folders but now it is possible to copy and paste them out of the program as well.
The Copy function is now context dependent. Previously, highlighting a message and using the Copy function would copy the message text. This functionality still exists but only if you highlight the Preview Pane (and use the Copy option). So in short, if the Message List is highlighted then Copy will copy the selected messages as .EML files, and if the Preview Pane is highlighted then currently displayed message text will be copied instead.
[2024-03-28] Forward as Attachment in the main window and the Search window
It is now possible to forward messages as attached .EML files. To Forward as Attachment, please select one or more messages in the main window message list, or in the Find/Search window message list. Then, right-click the messages and choose Forward as Attachment. A new email will be created with the .EML files being attached as expected.
Also, if you select a single message and click the Forward button, it will forward that message as before (as inline text). But if you multi-select messages then the same button automatically invokes Forward as Attachment, so the messages are attached instead. So using Forward as Attachment as a menu item is only required if you want to forward exactly one message as an attachment, otherwise the Forward button will suffice in that functionality.
If you forget to add some messages initially when choosing the Forward as Attachment function, you can also use the above Copy and Paste functionality to add more messages into the message you are already creating.
Forward as Attachment option in the popup menu.
