Drag and drop multiple mail messages into a folder in finder

Hello All,
I want to archive emails into folders in the finder. I can do this by dragging and dropping individual emails but not bulk emails.
Does anywone know the best way of doing this?
The reason I want to do it is once we have compleated a contract with a client, I want to archive all the messages, pictures, contacts etc into one finder folder. This way, my mail app wont keep growing horribly in size every year.
Thank you

Is the Archive function within Mail of any use?
Archive messages
You can store messages in an Archive mailbox so that you can quickly find them later when you’re ready to take action.
Select one or more messages to archive.If you select a conversation, all messages in the conversation are archived.
Choose Message > Archive or click the Archive icon in the Mail toolbar.An Archive mailbox is created for each account whose messages you archive. For example, if you archive a message sent to your MobileMe account and a message sent to your Gmail account, an Archive mailbox is created for each account.Archived messages remain in the Archive mailbox until you delete or move them. Depending on the account type, the Archive mailbox is stored on the mail server.
Regards,
Colin R.

  • Drag and drop multiple mail messages into finder

    I am trying to move multiple mail messages into finder folders for organization and filing purposes.  I know it will save these as mail files but that is what I would like anyway.  It lets me drag and drop one message at a time but does not let me do it for multiple messages at a time.  Does anybody know how to do this?

    You might consider using the "Archive" capability of Mail.  Look at Archive in Mail Help.

  • How to to drag and drop apple mail into a browser or a webpage?

    I want to drag and drop a mail from mailbox to a webpage for uploading.
    is it possible to do that?

    In the edit page mode, click the pencil of the region were your portlets are. A region is a box with a dotted line. In the first tab you have the ability to select "Allow action". Default this is set to "all". When you set it to "none", your portlets can not be drag & dropped.

  • I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please

    I just purchased Time Capsule today.  I ONLY want to use it as an external drive.  I do not need it for Time Machine. I need to free up room on my computer. As of now, I can't even load updates. I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

    I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
    Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
    And the OS on the computer is Lion?
    Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
    Give us the full picture of the network.
    Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

  • Drag and Drop e-mails to a SharePoint Online Folder

    Summary
    E-mail to a list is not available in SharePoint Online (yet) and it is difficult to move e-mails from Outlook to a SharePoint list for collaboration, storage and search.  The following steps will put a file on the users desktop that will open a SharePoint list and then you can drag and drop e-mails into the proper folder. 
    Step 1
    Create a drag and drop folder location for SharePoint Online e-mails
    1.       Go to your SharePoint Online shared documents location
    2.       Create the folder structure that you want for your e-mail storage
    3.       Click on your top folder
    4.       Click on Actions
    5.       Open with Windows Explorer
    6.       In the address bar at the top of the Explorer Window copy the address
    Step 2
    Go to Start, Computer
    1.       Click on Map Network Drive
    2.       Paste the address copied above into the Folder box
    3.       Check Reconnect at logon
    4.       Take note of the drive letter given or choose a drive letter
    *note these instructions are for Windows 7 – you can search help for Map Network Drive for the OS you are using
    Step 3
    Open Notepad
    1.       Type in the following:
    “explorer z:”  (leave out the quotation marks and enter the drive letter in step 2
    2.       Click File
    3.       Click Save As
    4.       File name OpenEmail.bat
    ·         Note the file name does not matter but the .bat has to be there
    ·         Save to the Desktop
    When a user wants to open the SharePoint location that stores e-mail they double click on OpenEmail.bat and it will open in an Explorer view which will allow for e-mails to drag and drop from Outlook into the folder.

    For drag and drop of emails from Outlook to SharePoint we are using a third party

  • How can I drag and drop a Tidal job into another group?

    How can I drag and drop a Tidal job into another group? In Tidal Help, it says-
    In the Jobs pane, press and hold the Ctrl key and at the same time right-click and either individually select individual jobs within a job group or drag your mouse cursor over a block of jobs that you wish to select. You can only move multiple jobs between job groups if the jobs being moved are on the same level.
    Keeping the right mouse button depressed, drag the cursor to the job group that you wish to move the jobs to and release the mouse button.
    When moving jobs from one job group to another, you must decide if the moved jobs keep their original job group attributes or assume the calendar and agent characteristics of its new job group.
    A confirmation dialog, offers three inheritance options for the jobs moved to the "new" job group parent. Select one of the following options:
    However, when I attempt to follow those instructions, it doesn't work at all and there is no indication that it's even trying (i.e., I don't see the selected job following my cursor at all and all I get is the normal menu when you right click anywhere on the screen.)
    Is there another way to do this or is there a master setting that needs to be changed so that ability is enabled?
    Thanks.

    Go into edit mode for the job group group and just manually edit the section for Parent job/Group.
    Cheers

  • I use to drag and drop an web address into a link toolbar, can't seem to figure out how to do this...?

    I just upgraded to Windows 7 and with it I got the latest Firefox. There is nothing like learning 2 things at one time. On my old XP and 3.? all I have to do was drag and drop a web address into a link toolbar. Saving all my frequent visited or just sights I want quick access to, to a toolbar quick button. I have been playing with this for days and decided to try this Forum. I did find the Bookmark toolbar, but cant seem to figure out what is if for or if you can drop into it. When I right click it and Customize, it shows me add on buttons, but nothing to do with web addresses or alike...
    Bottom line; I want to be able to drag and drop a web address into a toolbar for recall latter and be able to edit the address with a right click at a latter date in necessary...
    Thanks, Mike

    You can drag and drop the favicon also known as the [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Site+Identity+Button site identity button], at the left hand edge of the location bar onto a toolbar to bookmark the site.

  • New JNDI name created for each drag and drop of database table into table

    Hi All,
    I'm using Netbeans 5.5 with Visual Web Pack with Mysql as backend. Whenever I drag and drop a database table into table component it creates new JNDI (data source) name for each table. I want to use single JNDI name for all tables. If I change the JNDI name to default name then the design disappears and shows error . Is there any option to set the JNDI name unique for all tables?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi again,
    Well I've tried using the MouseListener / MouseMotionListener approach but it doesn't quite seem to work, although it does get the events correctly. I think the reason is that it doesn't interact correctly with the Java DnD machinery which is something that V.V hinted at. It's something that I may need to look into if / when I have more time available.
    I have to say though that I haven't had any problems with scrollbars - we're making fairly heavy use of large tables and if you drag over a table with a scroll bar and move to the top or bottom then it scrolls as you would expect and allows you to drop the data where you like. For this situation I've used pretty much the same approach as for the toy example above except that I've implemented separate source and destination TransferHandlers (the source table is read-only, and it really doesn't make sense to allow people to drag from the destination table so I've essentially split the functionality of the example handler down the middle).
    I'm not actually particularly in favour of messing too much with the mechanics of DnD, more because of lack of time than anything else. Guess I'll just have to put up with this for the moment. Doesn't help that DnD is so poorly documented by Sun.
    Thanks for all your help.

  • Help, I can not drag and drop address book contacts into numbers.

    i have read the manual. watched videos on youtube, but I can not drag and drop address book contacts into numbers or pages.  I upgraded to Numbers 09.  set up the fields as stipulated, but when I drag a contact to the numbers canvas it just bounces back to address book.  I tried reinstalling 09 thinking it was a faulty install.  no luck.  Have tried dragging to balnk part of canvas, to the table, and to a table with fields, no luck. 
    Thank you.

    Could be a preferences setting. See Jerry's post in this thread.

  • Can't drag and drop Multiple pictures

    I can no longer drag and drop multiple iPhoto pictures to the Desktop. Drag and drop a single picture works OK but multiple pictures just doesn't work. I was able to do this in the past. I'm using version 9.4.2. Repairing Disk Utilities and restarting has not helped.
    Can anyone help? Your help is appreciated.
    Rookie

    Try this: make a temporary, backup copy of the library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and try the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - Select and run Option #1.

    not directly, you'll need to use some software to convert it to a format supported by GB:

  • Unable to drag and drop videos or music from PC folder to ITunes.  Any ideas why?

    Why can I not drag and drop videos or music from PC folder to ITunes?

    I can only guess since you provide no details, but my guess is that these are either not industry-standard MPEG-4 videos but rather one of the offshoots that use the same file extension, or they're a resolution, frame rate or aspect ratio that iTunes can't accept. Can the videos and tracks be played in QuickTime Player? If so, open the Movie Inspector, find the Format information, and post that here along with your versions of Windows and iTunes. That might help people figure out what might be going wrong.
    Regards.
