Within the folder press <Ctrl>+* to expand all threads that may stil be
collapsed.
After this press <Ctrl>+A to select all messages.
Now use menu "Tools" / "Export Messages" / "UNIX Mailbox"
Select in the upcoming dialog where to save the mbox-file, confirm it and
you're done :-)
To verify the export is done you can use a text editor like notepad ... but be
aware: notepad is not able to handle the unix newlines correctly:
it simply does not show them :-)
So it might be all you see is a hugh one-liner :-)
If you have a *nix at hand you can test if export worked with e.g. 'mutt' ...
everytime I did it it worked like a charm :-)
If you've further questions: ask, I think this is one of very some fields I'm
able to help as *nix is my job *ggg*
