Click on the message area itself Press Cmd-a (select all) Press CMD-c, etc., as Tim said. This will get you a copy of the text as its displayed. Method 2: Click on the message you want to save in the list view. Do NOT click in the text area. Press CMD-c, etc., as Tim said. This will get the mail with all the suppressed mail headers that show routing, timestamps, etc. All the goody stuff that NeXT hides from you, but stuff that is absolutely essential when you're troubleshooting mail problems. -- L.
