Hi,

do you mean the SaveAs dialog? OL offers no way for changing that.

As I said: OL offers no way.

If you are familiar with the Win32 API and able to develop an
asynchronously running ActiveX-EXE, then it might be possible to change
the combobox selection (for the file extension) after the dialog is
displaying. In OL2k e.g. it is possible writing the filename with the
..msg extension into the file name field, the selected extension then
will be ignored. But this works only for plain text, not for html or rtf
mails.
