Comrade Stoker Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Hi all I am up shits creek with something and I need help, I would be very grateful if anyone can help. I have a load of emails in a hotmail account and I need to forward them as a bulk. This cannot be done in Hotmail. Is there a way I could download a mail client and get those emails into that client, from there, I could get them saved. I have a Mac and a PC. Ideally, I don't want to pay for Outlook client and I really need this to work without a massive amount of fucking around as I am under the cosh on every front at the moment. Any help would be rewarded with a genuine Blue Peter Badge. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRider Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 I think you used to be able to connect to hotmail via outlook, not sure if you still can though. I would imagine if you do that it would download your whole inbox to your PC for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot_Rock Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 How about creating a backup of the email archive and sending that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northern_soul Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Is it definitely not possible to export the email? Just I found this: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/livemail-email/how-do-i-save-my-emails-and-folders-in-my-hotmail/20b399bd-c006-46ff-a31c-974e682352fb?msgId=7d71584b-f3ef-4772-a567-1bcd5778a02d Alternatively your second idea should work, download Mozilla Thunderbird, pull all your emails from Hotmail down then export them.

I don't care though, I can see the good times ahead, I'm nearly done I'm going to get right on it this weekend, a fucking cocktail of drugs, Im going to be like a cross between Oliver Reed and Bez off of the Happy Mondays.
