FFS, Si, can't you learn how to spell?!?!

It might help if you told us what the email system is.... (i.e., PC, Unix, VMS, Mac, etc) and possibly even what the client is?

Ah bugger.

What system are you using? Outlook? If so /documents and settings/<username>/local settings/application data/microsoft/outlook and take the PST file. Also, for no adequately explainable reason, the rules wizard stuff is in /documents and settings/<username>/application data/microsoft/outlook

There's also a program called outback which may be easier... Google for it.

Of course, if you're not using MS Outlook, this doesn't apply

Cool

Why don't you just ask the IT department? They're bound to know.

Alternatively, can't you just select all the mails in one go and forward them onto, say, a hotmail account?

Thumbs down

If he can't work out how to forward a few emails from a Uni account onto his personal account, I suspect that continuing the Computer Science course will be a bit pointless anyway...

Why don't you do what I recommended to you ages ago? create a NTL mailbox for yourself since you use them for broadband and then log into your uni mail system and forward it on in chunks that ntl can accept?

It isn't difficult to setup, you are more than capable of figuring it out and then you will have a proper email system like most of us.

Sigh....

Cheers,

Nick.

Looks like you're using IMAP. Outlook can speak IMAP (I think)

Easiest thing: forward the stuff you want if that's your only way of picking up mail.

Seriously, please, why don't you f*ck off unless you're going to answer questions asked of you. How is anyone supposed to help if you won't even bother telling us a few extraneous facts (as I requested)?

And do you really need all 1,000 mails? I find that hard to believe.

You're talking sh*t, as usual, and wasting everyone else's time. If you were really that bothered, you'd pop over to the IT dept, and speak to the server admin staff to find out what's the best solution. Assuming, that is, that the mail account is on a server - but I since you haven't given that information (which is, incidentally, crucial to us helping you solve the problem) I can't be certain.

"ike ive being taught that on my degree"

My degree didnt cover "walking", "breathing" or "eating" but somehow I muddled through without scoobynet.

Shall I dig out a couple of recent threads in which you answered people's requests for help with some gibberish that seemd to indicate you wanted to flog them your old (probably fecked) kit ?

Seeing as you promised you'd **** off recently but didnt I dont see why I should.

Si, you are a nad. So much so that I am sick of it and you are blocked from my messenger now 'breathes a sigh of relief' Do you feel big asking me questions, getting the hump and then shouting at me that I am wrong? I told you ages ago to sort NTL and you just sat there with your finger up your @ss instead of picking up a phone, speaking to somebody and using your initiative to set the rest up.

Your attitude sometimes, just like your spelling sucks mate [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

If most of your 1000-odd emails are just text, then you should be able to forward a good couple of hundred at a time you muppet.
Not exactly a lot of work, but maybe it is, as you can't get someone else to do it for you!

You suck.

Si, there's a BIG BUTTON on that first screen called FORWARD.

Therefore forward the important e-mails to yourself....

Seriously, were they giving entrance to your course free with Kitkats?

Okay, so you can't forward them onto another account or ask the IT dept. for help.

What about printing them out? I'd want to do that anyway if they're as important as you say.

Then you can set up your own personal email account and use that instead.

You are the only student I've ever come across who relies solely on the campus email address for anything.
