I've just given that a go, and surprise, surprise it hasn't been implemented like that. The 'message source' in Thunderbird shows all the android client forwards is a base64 encoded dump of the original message body *only*. Other than that, all that is recoverable of the original message is its subject (albeit with 'Fwd:' pre-pended, in the subject line of the forwarded message). Thanks for trying again. It looks like my only hope would be to get Google to release a new version with a patch for some kind of 'copy messages to another folder' or export functionality. Although that does seem unlikely, this is such basic functionality (it doesn't warn you that 'if you use this client, you will not be able to move to another without losing your messages') that there may be a hope they will fix it. Surely, other people are going to run into this? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
