copy outlook emails to a desktop folder and retain email dates

's Computer Specifications

Greetings,

How can I copy outlook emails to a folder on the desktop and retain the
email dates. Drag and drop makes all the dates the current date.

Thanks for your help,

Tom

You can't. File creation dates have nothing to do with mail received dates.
