How can I save mail messages to my computer and not my mail program

My mail program seems to be slow. I'm not sure why. I get the spinning ball frequently. I need to save mail messages sometimes for a few years and there are hundreds of emails. Is it better to save them on my computer than my mail program? I may need to retrieve them at some other time so they need to be readable. Is that possible?
I'm using OS X 10.9.4. I have a 3.06 GHz processor and 12 GB of memory. Thanks

You can select to export a folder to save as a .mbox file. This file would need to be imported if you wanted to view the messages.
Select mailbox (folder)
Under Mailbox in the Menu bar select Export Mailbox...
You might also want to check out the demo for EagleFiler by the author for SpamSieve. You could view and search the messages archived in EagleFiler.

Regarding Mail being slow....
Is it only Mail that is slow? How much free space on your drive? Use Disk Utility to find available space.

How do I save mail in rich/plain text with attachments?

I installed Mavericks last night and see (as I expected) that the save mail with attachments in rich text or plain text function in Mail is still broken, as it was with Mountain Lion for the whole of its life, even through updates. Anyone know how to fix this if Apple won't?

Hi,
Currently we send emal notifications as html format by default. but you can change it as plain tex or rich text when you forward or reply the email.
OR you can use this form to "vote" on popular feature requests, or to add a new one of your own:

My mailserver is POP. I use outlook to read/answer may mails. I access to mails on iphone, as IMAP. Once read in outlook they dissapear from iphone. How can I save mails on iphone after reading them in outlook?

My mail account resides on a POP server at Hostway. I am reading my mails on my computer using MS outlook.
I have configured this mailbox as IMAP account on my iphone (IOS5). When my computer is switched off, I receive new mails on my iphone. Once I open my oulook inbox and read the mails, they dissapear from my iphone. Is there a way to keep them on my iphone, while keeping them on my computer as well?
Thank for helping

WHat server address are you using on your Computer and on your Phone?
Have you also looked at the behaviour settings for your Outlook mailboxes, as far as when e-mails should be deleted from the server?

How can I save mail messages on iPad

I (strictly, my wife) have just bought a WiFi-only iPad to replace an ageing MacBook, and I also have an iMac. I have a need to store and organize a limited number of Mail messages in the iPad, such that they are available in the future when I do not have internet access - i.e. while travelling. These are varied, but typically contain reference information, reservation details, receipts, directions, etc.
Previously, this was easy to do with the MacBook. I set up our GMail account as POP3, and filed such messages as we needed in as many Filed Mail mailboxes as I wanted. Unfortunately, if you set up a Mail account as POP on the iPad, you can't define Filed Mail mailboxes. And if you set up the account as IMAP, you don't have access to your filed mail when not connected to the internet. So you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
So here's the question. Is there any organised way to save messages permanently on the iPad? And any attachments need to be kept as well. While strictly they no longer need to be in Mail format (i.e. can't be forwarded or replied to), that would be a less convenient approach, and those all-important attachments would have to be dealt with. But I am willing to be flexible.
And before anyone says that POP will not work with multiple devices, GMail POP has a feature that allows the same email to be downloaded to multiple devices as well as being held on the server if required, and all sent emails are also echoed back to all devices (the "recent" feature). This has worked fantastically up to now.
Any help would be appreciated.

Do you need to be able to initiate this entirely from the iPad, or would it be acceptable to have to use one of your Macs when you save one of the limited number of messages? If involving a Mac would be acceptable, I can see ways to work around the iPad's lack of local mailbox storage.
You could use one of the various free cloud storage services that allow general file storage and local retention on the iPad (for example, Dropbox or Dump Truck, but not iCloud).
For Dropbox, you would make a folder for this cluster of saved messages inside Dropbix. For each message you want to save, create a folder inside that cluster folder, do a "Save As..." in Mac Mail.app for the text body, then a "Save Attachments..." if appropriate. (The inner folder wouldn't be strictly necessary for messages without attachments, but I suggest it for consistency.)
The key part is to open Dropbox on the iPad and mark the message and attachments as favorites (starred). That causes Dropbox to preload them on the iPad and retain them there until they are unstarred (lose favor).
You could probably do something similar with Evernote and favorites.

If I change internet providers, how do I save mail and change settings?

I am going to have a representative from a different broadband service come over tomorrow and see if my house is within the area served by her company (Clearwire). If it is I plan to drop my satellite service and go with this, assuming it is faster. In case I do this, I realize there are a few things I need to know first that I hope someone here can help me with.
1. If I go with the new service provider, my email address will change. Does this mean that what is in my current mailbox (I have several folders with emails I have saved) will no longer be accessible? How do I backup what is in all the folders now in a way that I will be able to get into it with a different provider? (I have an external hard drive, but it is usb so cloning is not a possibility.)
2. If the new service works, I think I will have to make changes like DNS numbers and such. Hate to admit this, but I do not remember where to find and change these things.
3. What else might I be forgetting to think of that I need to know?
Thanks very much in advance for all advice and suggestions.

Do not change the settings for the existing account.
You should create a new account in Mail for the email account provided by Clearwire.
Before deleting the email account in Mail provided by your Satellite internet provider, create an "On My Mac" location mailbox - one for the account's Inbox mailbox and one for the account's Sent mailbox. Transfer messages from the Satellite account's Inbox and Sent mailbox to the user created "On My Mac" mailboxes. When completed, delete the Satellite provider's email account.
You shouldn't have to change anything with the new provider. I assume Clearwire provides an Ethernet modem and sends an installer to set up the equipment, etc.?

How do I save mail in the new OS6?

I downloaded the new operating system OS6 yesterday and now It doesn't give me the option to save messages as unread.

HOW MAY I SAVE MULTIPLE-OPENED BROWSING TABS WHEN CLOSING FIREFOX, PLEASE?

When closing Firefox I would like to be able to leave some tabs open so my next session just carries on, as though I had left a real $5.00 note bookmark in an ole-fashioned book.

Firefox 4 automatically saves your tabs and windows when you exit to restore them just click the Firefox button>History menu>Restore Previous Session and it will open your previous tabs and windows in addition to your current tabs and windows.

How can I synch Mail application between an iMac and a Macbook Pro

Has anyone had to do this and if so, how do I do it?
Thanks for your help

You can get a Dropbox account, this will allow for 2GB of free storage and you can purchase additional storage if needed. You can find out about Dropbox from their website or read one of the many reviews about them. Their address is:
www.dropbox.com
and some reviews are at:
http://www.onlinebackupsreview.com/dropbox.php

And you can Google to find additional reviews if you would like.

How may I configure Apple's Mail to not download old e-mails from my Hotmail account?

When I connect my Hotmail account to Apple's Mail application, it starts to download all of my read e-mails and marks them as unread. How may I configure Mail so it downloads only new e-mails just like it works in iOS?

There also might be a setting in Hotmail if you access via a browser.

How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
Thanks
MG

This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

How can I save an e-mail to documents on our macbook Air?

How can I save an e-mail to documents on our macbook Air?

It's pretty impossible to figure out what you're really trying to do ...
If you're literally trying to save an e-mail to your documents folder (which I doubt), then you can open the e-mail, do a File > Save As ... from Mail's menu and do it from there.
Good luck.
