Hi Rich, To make a new folder do the following: 1. Press Alt + F, for the file menu. 2. Press enter on, New. 3. Press enter on, Folder. 4. You are now in in an edit field of a new folder so, type in the name of the folder & press enter. You should now have this folder in your My Documents folder if this where you created it.
Another way to creat a new folder: 1. Press your applications / context menu key or you can also press the keystroke, Shift + F10. 2. Arrow up or down to, New & press enter. 3. Press enter on folder & follow step #4 from above. HTH Take care.

I did not catch how to make a folder in the first place. My thought is to have a folder labeled "e mails" in "my docs". Please bare with my inexperience and let me know how to make/create the folder in "my docs". I then could follow your steps to copy the mails.
