The claim that Apple Mail does not save multiple messages is not true. If you select multiple messages and the menu command Save As, Mail will save a .rtfd document (in practice a directory) containing all the messages and the attachments, and can be opened with SimpleText.

You're correct, in that you CAN save emails in RTF format and it will clump them all together in a single file. However, I dislike thumbing through the RTF looking for the message I want. By saving the files as individual text files, I can zip through the file names (which are the subject lines) and find what I'm after faster.I hope this clears up any misunderstanding. Export Messages is not intended to be a solution for all cases. It is provided in the hope that others may find it useful as I do.

Thanks for the tip! Nothing against freeware developers, but I'll always choose a built-in feature over a 3rd-party applescript.Reply to This
