Hi !

I would like to pass on all my job related e-mails to my substitute (hundreds of mails in a folder).

I am looking for a way to forward an entire folder , or to download an entire folder (and then pass on the downloaded folder).

Thank you very much in advance !

drag the contents to a thumb drive and drag them back at the other end is by far the easiest method

Hi again,

Thanks for clearing that :)

Something is still not working for me though.

I went into a folder, pressed cntrl+A and dragged it into a folder on my computer (I assume this is the same as onto a DOK). I've now got a .mailtoloc file on my computer. I tried to drag it back into a different folder to see that the loop works but it won't let me drag it back or import it (through tools>import).

Any suggestions regarding what I'm doing wrong ? :/

Thanks again for all of this help.
