How do I save my e-mails to my computer?

[Guest]

I am leaving a company and I need to save my e-mails and contacts to the
shared drive on my computer for their future reference. Is there a way to
save as my e-mail folders to a location on my computer- like, say, my
desktop? or my documents?

Hey...

Try "File" - "Import and Export" - "Export to a File" - "Personal Folder
File (.pst)" and then select what you want.

Never export - simply copy the .pst to a CD-RW with Outlook completely
closed.

With Outlook closed, copy the PST to a shared folder.

a pst file is very difficult to share. I suggest that nobody wants your
complete outlook-file. I suggest to drag and drop the files to a
directory in which they belong. Where the worddocuments are saved as
well: In that case you have your complete digital archive together. And
not only for the one that opens your pst file!

I wasn't suggesting sharing the PST between two Outlooks. The OP said, "I
need to save my e-mails and contacts to the shared drive on my computer for
their future reference." The easiest way to do that is to make a copy of
the PST, placing it in the shatred folders. Then that future person can
simply open that PST and see all the data. How is that in any way
difficult? It certainly fulfills the stated requirement.
