I had a similar problem with netscape mail. I used it for a while then I got tired of it being so slow and I switched to pine. In order to get several hundred e-mail messages from netscape to pine this is what I had to do: 1 - Netscape should have made a file in your home directory called nsmail. In this file you should see any folders you have created along with your "inbox", "sent-mai", "trash", etc. folders. If you notice these are not directories but files. 2 - The files are seperated by the header information for the e-mail. If you copy the files you wish to archive to the CD, with the header information in tact, you should be able to go back to the saved files at a later date and read the e-mail. ( I had to move the files over to my pine directory and everything worked fine). Let me know if you need some more help. I may not have been very clear. Hope this answers your question.

I'm using Netscape Communicator as my mailer. Communicator seems to have its own file structure for mail folders. I'd like to archive my mail onto CDROMs. Saving it there is the easy part. The hard part is how to look at it again once it's been archived, since there doesn't seem to be a way under Communicator to specify the location of the mail folder I want to look at.
Any suggestions?
