Moving E-mails to a thumbdrive

[Roy]

I have successfully moved some E-mails onto a 2GB thumbdrive but now its
stopped with the message "This directory of disc is full choose another
directory or disc." There is still plenty of space on the thumbdrive. Can
anyone help thanks?

Start by telling us exactly what you did, which version you have and what
your aim is. Your post is too vague to get help specific to your situation.

I'm running 'XP Home'. Not sure what version of Outlook Express. Opening
Outlook, opening a local folder, opening the e-mail, click on 'file', click
on 'save as' which opens 'save message as', go to the thumbdrive and hit
save. The window freezes then comes up with the quoted message. Also informs
that "Directory of disc R is full".
Have moved quite a few e-mails onto this thimbdrive already with no problems
'till now.

May I ask what your intention is in doing this? There may be a much easier
way.
