How to export emails from a certain sender?
I have a lot of emails spread over several threads over several months from a single domain (few people from the same company).
I would like to export those emails so that it is easier for me to send it to someone and arrange it in chronological order. This would require them to collect and arrange emails over several threads and create a single document that shows the conversation over a period of time.
I use Google apps email.

have you tried creating a filter where you specify just the domain name in the FROM fields?
ASKER
ok. I can create that filter and search. But how do I export all those emails? I don't want to do it one by one.
Why do you want to export them? If conversation mode is on in Gmail, you have access to them by filter or search whenever you need them?
ASKER
I need to send it to someone else. They need to take all the replies in all the threads and make a document out of it.

The problem here is that, this is a business email id (google apps) and my company did not buy vault when bought apps for all the employees and they won't buy it for just person.
Is there another option?

As mentioned earlier:
I have to hand over a few projects to someone else. These would mean getting the conversations with vendors as well.
I need to put everything into a doc and hand it over so that it is easy for them to just go through that and get up to speed on the project.
