outlook 2007 rules to export mail as html

You can export mail to a public folder that exists in Outlook or on your server with a standard rule.

can you please write the steps. I can't find it

Open Outlook
Click on Tools
Rules and Alerts
New Rule
Move messages from someone to a folder

And you click next to select the criteria for the email messages you want to send to a folder, whether it's from a person, a group or with certain words in the subject line, etc.  But you need a public folder created where you want these to go.

Yes, but I want to export them to a directory outside outlook in HTML format... that doesn't seem possible with your steps

Just as the 'save as' button does when viewing an e-mail

I don't know of any way to make that happen unless the rules do that.  Sorry!

You cannot create a rule for something which is outside the outlook. Outlook rules only work within Outlook and they run only when outlook is open. What you are looking for is not possibe.

The rule isn't for something outside outlook!

I just want to simulate the save as button (which is available in outlook) I'm sure it's possible. Perhaps not as easy as just simply clicking the new rule button ;)

Perhaps a little custom script?

awesome!
