Sarah, If you are going to save all of your e-mail as text, then you can do this quickly and painlessly with a method put forth to the list By Roselle a while back. In a nutshell, you mark all of the e-mail that you want to save, and then print or emboss the e-mail to a bile. You can do hundreds of e-mail via this method in a couple of minutes.
I am happy to send you, off list, Roselle's post. This post discribes the one time setup, and then the print procedure. I will tell you that this will keep you sain while you convert all of your e-mail to text.
