Currently emails can only be saved as plain text, RTF or MIME. Add PDF as an option.
If the PDF includes all header information and a list of attachments, it could be used to store the formatted mail in a harder to change format which is easy to view.
Batch export should be supported.

• PDF would be nice. You can already select multiple messages and use the File - Save As option.

• Agreed - a native PDF export of the message would be a very popular option here.

• really useful idea - especially if you could select which of the message/properites/attachments you wanted and if to save as individual or one pdf document.

• This is close to being achievable. Use a product called PDFCreator from PDFForge. It is possible to "print" your messages to PDF format. The problem is that I have not been able to find a way to print the message with properties in one go. The easiest way to enable this would be to make it possible to print the message with full details in a single step.

• Yes the workaround with PDFCreator or any other virtual pdf printer works of course. Another workaround would be to implement a C3PO that uses a library like iTextSharp. There you could also print the full details (which are accessible through the Object API or Token API). But this is all non-native and therefore not supported. And since PDF is the de facto document standard around the globe there should be some native and supported functionality.
