Dear all, thank you for these great replies! I will do research into each one. This brings me to one question already. Many solutions involve preserving the .html file. But is it possible for .html file to include images that were included in the email file? If so, although .html file is preserved (using the solutions in this thread), might the images be deleted, which the .html file depends on? Kind regards, Xu
